Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2019 Christies in New York held the auction The Face of the Century: Photographs from a Private Collection, which included the work Marlon Brando as Stanley Kowalski in 'A Streetcar Named Desire', 1948 by Ronny Jaques. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 3,250.00 (€ 2,901.53) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ronny Jaques - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Billie Holiday, 1950S, which sold at auction in April 2008 for USD 9,375.00 (€ 6,021.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2019 führte Christies in New York die Auktion The Face of the Century: Photographs from a Private Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Marlon Brando as Stanley Kowalski in 'A Streetcar Named Desire', 1948 von Ronny Jaques zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 3.250,00 (€ 2.901,53) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Ronny Jaques mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Billie Holiday, 1950S beobachtet, die im April 2008 für USD 9.375,00 (€ 6.021,97) versteigert wurde.
