Auction result misses estimated price range
In July last year a collector was able to acquire the work Bird in Flight by Joseph Stella for USD 7,560 (€ 6,372). This price was achieved in the auction An American Summer at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 8,000 – 12,000 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joseph Stella achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tree of My Life in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 5,937,500 (€ 5,243,752).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juli letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Bird in Flight von Joseph Stella für USD 7.560 (€ 6.372) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion An American Summer bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000 – 12.000. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joseph Stella erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tree of My Life im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.937.500 (€ 5.243.752).
