Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Im See Badende Mädchen, Moritzburg by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2015. The price achieved of USD 13,605,000.00 (€ 12,881,083.13) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000,000.00 – 15,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Berliner Strassenszene (Recto); Bäume (Verso), which sold at auction in November 2006 for USD 38,096,000.00 (€ 28,727,848.58).
