Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Soda Counter, 1939 by Rudy Burckhardt was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2011. The price achieved of USD 3,125.00 (€ 2,240.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Rudy Burckhardt - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Flatiron Building, Summer, 1948, which sold at auction in February 2007 for USD 10,200.00 (€ 7,709.75).
