Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Miniature Soft Drum Set by Claes Oldenburg was auctioned at Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts in September last year. The price achieved of USD 4,462.50 (€ 4,561.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Claes Oldenburg achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Clothespin Ten Foot in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 3,637,000.00 (€ 3,443,476.61).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Miniature Soft Drum Set von Claes Oldenburg kam im September letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 4.462,50 (€ 4.561,48) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Claes Oldenburg erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Clothespin Ten Foot im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.637.000,00 (€ 3.443.476,61).
