Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Untitled (Rehabilitation Client, Boone County, Arkansas) by Ben Shahn was sold in the Photographs auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2018. The price achieved of USD 8,125.00 (€ 6,729.34) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ben Shahn achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Scabbies are Welcome in September 2006 with an auction result of USD 262,400.00 (€ 206,825.88).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Untitled (Rehabilitation Client, Boone County, Arkansas) von Ben Shahn wurde im April 2018 in der Auktion Photographs bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 8.125,00 (€ 6.729,34) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ben Shahn erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Scabbies are Welcome im September 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 262.400,00 (€ 206.825,88).
