Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Store by Richard Wentworth was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in February 2007. The price achieved of USD 3,600.00 (€ 2,721.09) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 4,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Richard Wentworth - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work There, which sold at auction in April 2006 for GBP 4,800.00 (€ 6,927.76).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Store von Richard Wentworth kam im Februar 2007 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 3.600,00 (€ 2.721,09) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 3.000,00 – 4.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Richard Wentworth mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit There beobachtet, die im April 2006 für GBP 4.800,00 (€ 6.927,76) versteigert wurde.
