Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May 2019 Christies in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Abstraction by Marsden Hartley. Here, the upper estimate of USD 6,000,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 6,744,500.00 (€ 6,049,421.47). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Marsden Hartley - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Pre-War Pageant, which sold at auction in November 2018 for USD 27,395,000.00 (€ 24,194,118.17).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2019 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Abstraction von Marsden Hartley zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 6.000.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 6.744.500,00 (€ 6.049.421,47) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Marsden Hartley mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Pre-War Pageant beobachtet, die im November 2018 für USD 27.395.000,00 (€ 24.194.118,17) versteigert wurde.
