Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work New York at Night by Berenice Abbott was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April last year. It achieved a price of USD 17,640.00 (€ 16,741.01), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 18%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Berenice Abbott - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work New York At Night, 1932, which sold at auction in October 2013 for USD 87,500.00 (€ 64,366.63).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit New York at Night von Berenice Abbott kam im April letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 17.640,00 (€ 16.741,01) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 18%. Für andere Arbeiten von Berenice Abbott mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit New York At Night, 1932 beobachtet, die im Oktober 2013 für USD 87.500,00 (€ 64.366,63) versteigert wurde.
