Auction result misses estimated price range

In October 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work ‘Alpine Lake, Cerro Blanco Mountains, Col., Height Of The Peak Over 14,000 Feet. Lake 11,000 Feet Above Sea-Level’ by Timothy O'Sullivan for USD 3,438.00 (€ 2,653.19). This price was achieved in the auction Photographs at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Timothy O'Sullivan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Ancient Ruins In The Cañon De Chelle, N.M.' in April 2011 with an auction result of USD 134,500.00 (€ 90,749.61).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im Oktober 2012 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit ‘Alpine Lake, Cerro Blanco Mountains, Col., Height Of The Peak Over 14,000 Feet. Lake 11,000 Feet Above Sea-Level’ von Timothy O'Sullivan für USD 3.438,00 (€ 2.653,19) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Photographs bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Timothy O'Sullivan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Ancient Ruins In The Cañon De Chelle, N.M.' im April 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 134.500,00 (€ 90.749,61).
