Auction result well in line with expectations

In June 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Golden Locks by John George Brown. The price achieved of USD 68,750.00 (€ 61,214.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John George Brown achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Thrilling Moment in January this year with an auction result of USD 819,000.00 (€ 754,282.56).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Juni 2020 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Golden Locks von John George Brown zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 68.750,00 (€ 61.214,50) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John George Brown erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Thrilling Moment im Januar diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 819.000,00 (€ 754.282,56).
