Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Important Prints & Multiples: Part II, which included the work Miracle by Ed Ruscha. It changed hands for a price of USD 23,940.00 (€ 20,723.68) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. 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
Im Oktober 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Important Prints & Multiples: Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit Miracle von Ed Ruscha zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 23.940,00 (€ 20.723,68) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00. 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).
