Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Walter Quirt could be acquired at Christies in New York in July 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the The House Sale auction, the work Green Lady; and Brown Lady changed hands for USD 657.25 (€ 546.25) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Admittedly, works by Walter Quirt have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work I'm Going Away, Far Far Into the Distance, Never to Return--Goodbye in July 2002 with an auction result of USD 5,019.00 (€ 5,123.52).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Walter Quirt konnte im Juli 2004 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion The House Sale wechselte die Arbeit Green Lady; and Brown Lady für USD 657,25 (€ 546,25) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Walter Quirt auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit I'm Going Away, Far Far Into the Distance, Never to Return--Goodbye im Juli 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.019,00 (€ 5.123,52).
