Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work "Herr Birre och trollen" (Master Birre and the goblins) by John Bauer for SEK 85,000.00 (€ 9,901.41). This price was achieved in the auction Autumn Classic Sale, Stockholm at Bukowski in Stockholm and was even below the estimate range of SEK 100,000.00 – 125,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Bauer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Troll, stjärnenatt' (Troll, starry night) in December 2021 with an auction result of SEK 1,700,000.00 (€ 165,824.35).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2012 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit "Herr Birre och trollen" (Master Birre and the goblins) von John Bauer für SEK 85.000,00 (€ 9.901,41) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Autumn Classic Sale, Stockholm bei Bukowski in Stockholm erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von SEK 100.000,00 – 125.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Bauer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Troll, stjärnenatt' (Troll, starry night) im Dezember 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von SEK 1.700.000,00 (€ 165.824,35).
