Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Study for 'Sunset on the Shore of No Man's Land—Bass Fishing' by Sanford Robinson Gifford was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 77,500.00 (€ 70,333.06). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sanford Robinson Gifford achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Lake Twilight in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 2,900,000.00 (€ 2,601,130.15).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Study for 'Sunset on the Shore of No Man's Land—Bass Fishing' von Sanford Robinson Gifford im November 2019 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 77.500,00 (€ 70.333,06) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sanford Robinson Gifford erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Lake Twilight im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.900.000,00 (€ 2.601.130,15).
