Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work New England Valley by Robert William Vonnoh was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2018, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 17,500.00 (€ 14,204.55). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert William Vonnoh - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Blue Chair, which sold at auction in December 2004 for USD 71,700.00 (€ 52,962.03).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit New England Valley von Robert William Vonnoh im März 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 17.500,00 (€ 14.204,55) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Robert William Vonnoh mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Blue Chair beobachtet, die im Dezember 2004 für USD 71.700,00 (€ 52.962,03) versteigert wurde.
