Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Of the Blues (Second Chorus): New York: Jimmy & Ray by Romare Bearden was auctioned at Christies in Brussels in October this year. The price achieved of GBP 8,820.00 (€ 10,127.81) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Romare Bearden achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Street in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 1,109,000.00 (€ 982,546.29).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Of the Blues (Second Chorus): New York: Jimmy & Ray von Romare Bearden kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Christies in Brüssel zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 8.820,00 (€ 10.127,81) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Romare Bearden erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Street im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.109.000,00 (€ 982.546,29).
