A top price for John Pfahl - as previously expected
In April 2018 Christies in New York held the auction The Yamakawa Collection of Twentieth Century Photographs, which included the work Altered Landscapes: The Photographs Of John Pfahl by John Pfahl. The result of USD 20,000.00 (€ 16,564.52) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Altered Landscapes: The Photographs Of John Pfahl is the most expensive artwork by John Pfahl that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im April 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion The Yamakawa Collection of Twentieth Century Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Altered Landscapes: The Photographs Of John Pfahl von John Pfahl zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 16.564,52) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Altered Landscapes: The Photographs Of John Pfahl das teuerste Kunstwerk von John Pfahl, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
