Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Trumpeter, 1987 by Saint Clair Cemin was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2018, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 875.00 (€ 752.88). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Saint Clair Cemin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Large Table) in November 2004 with an auction result of USD 95,600.00 (€ 72,101.97).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Trumpeter, 1987 von Saint Clair Cemin im September 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 875,00 (€ 752,88) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Saint Clair Cemin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Large Table) im November 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 95.600,00 (€ 72.101,97).
