Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Ixtapan Burro by G. Harvey was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in February 2019. The price achieved of USD 3,125.00 (€ 2,746.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by G. Harvey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Boomtown Drifters in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 1,230,000.00 (€ 1,056,065.94).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Ixtapan Burro von G. Harvey kam im Februar 2019 bei Bonhams in Los Angeles zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 3.125,00 (€ 2.746,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 2.500,00 – 3.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von G. Harvey erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Boomtown Drifters im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.230.000,00 (€ 1.056.065,94).
