Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Shakespeare At Dusk by Edward Hopper was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 7,000,000.00 – 10,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 7,553,600.00 (€ 6,775,136.78) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Hopper achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Chop Suey in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 91,875,000.00 (€ 81,140,157.20).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Shakespeare At Dusk von Edward Hopper kam im Mai 2019 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 7.000.000,00 – 10.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 7.553.600,00 (€ 6.775.136,78) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Hopper erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Chop Suey im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 91.875.000,00 (€ 81.140.157,20).
