Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Thomas Struth could be acquired at Christies in London in October 2001 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Art and Photoworks auction, the work Zhe Jiang Zhong Lu, Shanghai changed hands for GBP 1,880.00 (€ 3,038.35) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Struth achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pantheon, Rome in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 1,810,000.00 (€ 1,646,352.56).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Thomas Struth konnte im Oktober 2001 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Art and Photoworks wechselte die Arbeit Zhe Jiang Zhong Lu, Shanghai für GBP 1.880,00 (€ 3.038,35) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Struth erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pantheon, Rome im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.810.000,00 (€ 1.646.352,56).
