A top price for William Anderson Coffin - as previously expected
In September 2005 Christies in New York held the auction Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture, which included the work The Mandolin Player by William Anderson Coffin. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 15,600.00 (€ 12,937.47) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Mandolin Player is the most expensive artwork by William Anderson Coffin that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im September 2005 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Mandolin Player von William Anderson Coffin zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 15.600,00 (€ 12.937,47) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Mandolin Player das teuerste Kunstwerk von William Anderson Coffin, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
