Auction result well in line with expectations
In February this year Phillips in an online auction held the auction The Eye That Shapes: Further Selections from the Peter C. Bunnell Collection, which included the work Selected Nature Studies by Minor White. The price achieved of USD 5,292.00 (€ 4,991.51) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by Minor White have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Photographs From 'Sequence 15' in October 2011 with an auction result of USD 62,500.00 (€ 44,812.50).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Februar diesen Jahres führte Phillips in einer Online-Auktion die Auktion The Eye That Shapes: Further Selections from the Peter C. Bunnell Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Selected Nature Studies von Minor White zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 5.292,00 (€ 4.991,51) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Minor White auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Photographs From 'Sequence 15' im Oktober 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 62.500,00 (€ 44.812,50).
