Auction result well in line with expectations
The work He Loafs All Day by Ed Ruscha was sold in the Modern & Contemporary Day Auction auction at Sothebys in London in June last year. The price achieved of GBP 189,000.00 (€ 219,564.24) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 160,000.00 – 250,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ed Ruscha achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hurting the Word Radio #2 in November 2019 with an auction result of USD 52,485,000.00 (€ 47,631,364.01).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit He Loafs All Day von Ed Ruscha wurde im Juni letzten Jahres in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary Day Auction bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 189.000,00 (€ 219.564,24) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 160.000,00 – 250.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ed Ruscha erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hurting the Word Radio #2 im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 52.485.000,00 (€ 47.631.364,01).
