Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'Black Bathroom, April 16, 1997' by Laurie Simmons was sold in the A Life Among Artists: Contemporary Photographs from an Esteemed Private Collection auction at Sothebys in New York in September 2021. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 6,000.00 – 9,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 6,048.00 (€ 5,224.15) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Laurie Simmons achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Walking Chanel Purse in November 2016 with an auction result of USD 100,000.00 (€ 94,535.83).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit 'Black Bathroom, April 16, 1997' von Laurie Simmons wurde im September 2021 in der Auktion A Life Among Artists: Contemporary Photographs from an Esteemed Private Collection bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 6.000,00 – 9.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 6.048,00 (€ 5.224,15) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Laurie Simmons erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Walking Chanel Purse im November 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 100.000,00 (€ 94.535,83).
