Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Roger Medearis could be acquired at Christies in New York in October 2013 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Interiors auction, the work Afternoon Shade changed hands for USD 1,125.00 (€ 827.57) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Roger Medearis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work In The Big Rock Candy Mountains in June 2020 with an auction result of USD 106,250.00 (€ 94,604.22).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Roger Medearis konnte im Oktober 2013 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Interiors wechselte die Arbeit Afternoon Shade für USD 1.125,00 (€ 827,57) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Roger Medearis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit In The Big Rock Candy Mountains im Juni 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 106.250,00 (€ 94.604,22).
