Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Selected Images by Emmet Gowin was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2013. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 5,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 5,625.00 (€ 4,271.72) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Emmet Gowin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Concerning America and Alfred Stieglitz, and Myself. Richmond, Virginia: by the photographer, 1965. in May 2010 with an auction result of GBP 39,650.00 (€ 46,455.48).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Selected Images von Emmet Gowin kam im April 2013 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 5.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 5.625,00 (€ 4.271,72) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Emmet Gowin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Concerning America and Alfred Stieglitz, and Myself. Richmond, Virginia: by the photographer, 1965. im Mai 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 39.650,00 (€ 46.455,48).
