Auction result well in line with expectations

In August this year Bonhams in Los Angeles held the auction Modern Native American Art and JewelryFeaturing the Historic Pictorial Beadwork Collection of Joel and Kate Kopp, which included the work Indian with Cat by Fritz Scholder. The price achieved of USD 1,088.00 (€ 1,003.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 800.00 – 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Fritz Scholder achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Dartmouth Portrait #8," 1973 in August last year with an auction result of USD 378,375.00 (€ 375,931.45).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im August diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in Los Angeles die Auktion Modern Native American Art and JewelryFeaturing the Historic Pictorial Beadwork Collection of Joel and Kate Kopp durch, in der auch die Arbeit Indian with Cat von Fritz Scholder zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.088,00 (€ 1.003,78) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Fritz Scholder erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "Dartmouth Portrait #8," 1973 im August letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 378.375,00 (€ 375.931,45).
