Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Roland Petersen could be acquired at Bonhams in Los Angeles in September 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art X Made in California auction, the work Study for a Picnic Table, 1964 changed hands for USD 2,400.00 (€ 2,048.13) - 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 Roland Petersen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Girl with Flowers in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 132,000.00 (€ 98,119.38).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Roland Petersen konnte im September 2020 bei Bonhams in Los Angeles für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art X Made in California wechselte die Arbeit Study for a Picnic Table, 1964 für USD 2.400,00 (€ 2.048,13) 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 Roland Petersen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Girl with Flowers im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 132.000,00 (€ 98.119,38).
