Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Jasper Johns could be acquired at Phillips in London in June this year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Evening & Day Editions auction, the work Summer (U.L.A.E. 234) changed hands for GBP 762.00 (€ 886.84) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jasper Johns achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Small False Start in November last year with an auction result of USD 55,350,000.00 (€ 53,618,134.26).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Jasper Johns konnte im Juni diesen Jahres bei Phillips in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Evening & Day Editions wechselte die Arbeit Summer (U.L.A.E. 234) für GBP 762,00 (€ 886,84) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jasper Johns erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Small False Start im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 55.350.000,00 (€ 53.618.134,26).
