Despite a disappointment, a good price for Sandy Hook

This work of art by Sandy Hook could be acquired at Christies in New York in June 2005 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Ocean Liner Furnishings and Art auction, the work The S.S. Paris At Sea changed hands for USD 12,000.00 (€ 9,918.99) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, The S.S. Paris At Sea is the most expensive artwork by Sandy Hook that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Sandy Hook

Dieses Kunstwerk von Sandy Hook konnte im Juni 2005 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Ocean Liner Furnishings and Art wechselte die Arbeit The S.S. Paris At Sea für USD 12.000,00 (€ 9.918,99) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist The S.S. Paris At Sea das teuerste Kunstwerk von Sandy Hook, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
