Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by John Dempsey could be acquired at Christies in New York in December 2003 for an unexpectedly low price. In the PLAYBOY AT 50 auction, the work You really hate the guy, don't you? changed hands for USD 597.50 (€ 474.32) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Admittedly, works by John Dempsey have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work You certainly look different without your dictation pad, Miss Bloom in December 2003 with an auction result of USD 4,182.50 (€ 3,320.23).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Dempsey konnte im Dezember 2003 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion PLAYBOY AT 50 wechselte die Arbeit You really hate the guy, don't you? für USD 597,50 (€ 474,32) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Dempsey auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit You certainly look different without your dictation pad, Miss Bloom im Dezember 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 4.182,50 (€ 3.320,23).
