Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2017 Christies in New York held the auction The Collection of Paul F. Walter, which included the work Fleur du Mal by John Ferren. The price achieved of USD 1,375.00 (€ 1,163.97) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Ferren achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in October 2007 with an auction result of USD 109,000.00 (€ 75,338.68).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2017 führte Christies in New York die Auktion The Collection of Paul F. Walter durch, in der auch die Arbeit Fleur du Mal von John Ferren zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.375,00 (€ 1.163,97) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Ferren erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Oktober 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 109.000,00 (€ 75.338,68).
