Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Turnip No. 8 by Will Fowler was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,375.00 (€ 1,232.63). Admittedly, works by Will Fowler have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Bathtub in March 2013 with an auction result of USD 11,250.00 (€ 8,778.09).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Turnip No. 8 von Will Fowler im Oktober 2019 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.375,00 (€ 1.232,63) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Will Fowler auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Bathtub im März 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 11.250,00 (€ 8.778,09).
