Auction result misses estimated price range
In September 2006 a collector was able to acquire the work Sanctuary (C. 38; Cz. 41) by John Steuart Curry for USD 840.00 (€ 662.10). This price was achieved in the auction Prints and Multiples at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 900.00 – 1,200.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Steuart Curry achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Preliminary Study for a Mural: Oklahoma Land Rush in May 2003 with an auction result of USD 175,500.00 (€ 149,158.59).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im September 2006 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Sanctuary (C. 38; Cz. 41) von John Steuart Curry für USD 840,00 (€ 662,10) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Prints and Multiples bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 900,00 – 1.200,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Steuart Curry erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Preliminary Study for a Mural: Oklahoma Land Rush im Mai 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 175.500,00 (€ 149.158,59).
