Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2017 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Wanda by Stephen Scott Young. The price achieved of USD 25,000.00 (€ 22,946.31) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Stephen Scott Young achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Creole Girl (Red Bows) in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 348,000.00 (€ 258,678.36).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2017 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Wanda von Stephen Scott Young zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 25.000,00 (€ 22.946,31) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Stephen Scott Young erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Creole Girl (Red Bows) im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 348.000,00 (€ 258.678,36).
