Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sunset Garage by Robert Bechtle was sold in the Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2018. The price achieved of USD 125,000.00 (€ 107,112.25) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert Bechtle - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work '64 Chrysler, which sold at auction in November 2010 for USD 458,500.00 (€ 351,718.32).
