Description
HELMUT NEWTON (1920–2004) Diving Tower, Old Beach Hotel, Monte Carlo, 1981 gelatin silver print, printed 1984 signed in pencil and numbered print '7' from suite 'II' and '9/75' in photographer's Private Property copyright credit stamp in ink (verso) image: 10 5/8 x 10 5/8 in.

Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Diving Tower, Old Beach Hotel, Monte Carlo, 1981 by Helmut Newton was auctioned at Christies in New York in October this year. The price achieved of USD 8,190.00 (€ 7,749.81) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 7,000.00 – 9,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Helmut Newton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Big Nude III" (Variation), Paris in May last year with an auction result of USD 2,340,000.00 (€ 2,180,598.27).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Diving Tower, Old Beach Hotel, Monte Carlo, 1981 von Helmut Newton kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 8.190,00 (€ 7.749,81) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 7.000,00 – 9.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Helmut Newton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "Big Nude III" (Variation), Paris im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.340.000,00 (€ 2.180.598,27).
