Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Margrethe (Nude, Seated Near Chest) by Edward Weston was auctioned at Bonhams in London in October this year. It changed hands for a price of USD 2,816.00 (€ 2,664.65) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Weston achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nude in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 1,609,000.00 (€ 1,033,530.32).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Margrethe (Nude, Seated Near Chest) von Edward Weston kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 2.816,00 (€ 2.664,65) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Weston erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nude im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.609.000,00 (€ 1.033.530,32).
