Auction result well in line with expectations
In March last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Discoveries, which included the work The First Edison Recording by Robert Janitz. The price achieved of USD 11,970.00 (€ 10,790.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert Janitz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Elastic Temperament, which sold at auction in March this year for GBP 19,050.00 (€ 21,673.05).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Discoveries durch, in der auch die Arbeit The First Edison Recording von Robert Janitz zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 11.970,00 (€ 10.790,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Robert Janitz mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Elastic Temperament beobachtet, die im März diesen Jahres für GBP 19.050,00 (€ 21.673,05) versteigert wurde.
