Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sand Dunes, Sunrise, Death Valley National Monument, C. 1948 by Ansel Adams was sold in the The Range of Light: Photographs by Ansel Adams auction at Christies in New York in April 2014. The price achieved of USD 21,250.00 (€ 15,320.84) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ansel Adams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming in December 2020 with an auction result of USD 988,000.00 (€ 807,849.55).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Sand Dunes, Sunrise, Death Valley National Monument, C. 1948 von Ansel Adams wurde im April 2014 in der Auktion The Range of Light: Photographs by Ansel Adams bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 21.250,00 (€ 15.320,84) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ansel Adams erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 988.000,00 (€ 807.849,55).
