Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Robert Cumming could be acquired at Christies in New York in September 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Prints and Multiples auction, the work Two Frame Arc; and One Frame Step changed hands for USD 60.00 (€ 47.29) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 200.00 – 300.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Cumming achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Work For Saws. Irvine, California' And 'Saws Through At Right Angles. . .Rip And Cross-Cut.': A Diptych in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 13,860.00 (€ 11,900.06).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Robert Cumming konnte im September 2006 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Prints and Multiples wechselte die Arbeit Two Frame Arc; and One Frame Step für USD 60,00 (€ 47,29) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 200,00 – 300,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Cumming erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Work For Saws. Irvine, California' And 'Saws Through At Right Angles. . .Rip And Cross-Cut.': A Diptych im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 13.860,00 (€ 11.900,06).
