Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Six Colorful Gags (Male) by John Baldessari was auctioned at Bonhams in London in October this year. The price achieved of USD 3,840.00 (€ 3,633.61) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Baldessari achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 2,517,000.00 (€ 1,845,307.92).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Six Colorful Gags (Male) von John Baldessari kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 3.840,00 (€ 3.633,61) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Baldessari erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.517.000,00 (€ 1.845.307,92).
