Sold at the lower estimate price
In May 2013 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Day Auction, which included the work Study For "Leaning Strata" by Robert Smithson. The result of USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,699.41) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Smithson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Alogon #3 in May 2008 with an auction result of USD 4,297,000.00 (€ 2,761,568.12).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Mai 2013 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit Study For "Leaning Strata" von Robert Smithson zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 7.699,41) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Smithson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Alogon #3 im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 4.297.000,00 (€ 2.761.568,12).
