Sold at the lower estimate price
In March 2016 Christies in New York held the auction FIRST OPEN | Post-War and Contemporary Art, which included the work The Struggle by Bob Thompson. The result of USD 20,000.00 (€ 17,559.26) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bob Thompson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Meeting Man in May this year with an auction result of USD 327,600.00 (€ 307,490.14).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im März 2016 führte Christies in New York die Auktion FIRST OPEN | Post-War and Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Struggle von Bob Thompson zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 17.559,26) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bob Thompson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Meeting Man im Mai diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 327.600,00 (€ 307.490,14).
