Auction result well in line with expectations
In October this year Bonhams in London held the auction Photographs, which included the work 'Lisa (Fonssagrives-Penn), Hands with Flask + Flowers' by Horst P. Horst. The price achieved of USD 7,040.00 (€ 6,661.62) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Horst P. Horst achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mainbocher Corset, Paris, 1939 in April 2007 with an auction result of USD 288,000.00 (€ 210,834.55).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit 'Lisa (Fonssagrives-Penn), Hands with Flask + Flowers' von Horst P. Horst zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 7.040,00 (€ 6.661,62) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Horst P. Horst erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mainbocher Corset, Paris, 1939 im April 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 288.000,00 (€ 210.834,55).
