Auction result misses estimated price range

In March 2018 a collector was able to acquire the work Road To The River by Walter Emerson Baum for USD 21,250.00 (€ 17,248.38). This price was achieved in the auction American Art at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Walter Emerson Baum - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Pink House, which sold at auction in November 2007 for USD 73,000.00 (€ 49,700.44).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im März 2018 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Road To The River von Walter Emerson Baum für USD 21.250,00 (€ 17.248,38) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion American Art bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Walter Emerson Baum mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Pink House beobachtet, die im November 2007 für USD 73.000,00 (€ 49.700,44) versteigert wurde.
