Auction result misses estimated price range
In March 2020 a collector was able to acquire the work Gray Two-Piece Skirt Suit By K. C. Chang, Made In Hong Kong, With Hand-Sewn Black Velvet Vest by Georgia O'Keeffe for USD 6,875.00 (€ 6,233.57). This price was achieved in the auction Alfred Stieglitz, Georgia O’Keeffe, Juan Hamilton: Passage at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Georgia O'Keeffe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 in November 2014 with an auction result of USD 44,405,000.00 (€ 35,701,077.34).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im März 2020 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Gray Two-Piece Skirt Suit By K. C. Chang, Made In Hong Kong, With Hand-Sewn Black Velvet Vest von Georgia O'Keeffe für USD 6.875,00 (€ 6.233,57) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Alfred Stieglitz, Georgia O’Keeffe, Juan Hamilton: Passage bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 7.000,00 – 10.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Georgia O'Keeffe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 im November 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 44.405.000,00 (€ 35.701.077,34).
