Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sunlight on Water I; and Sunlight on Water II by Pat Steir was sold in the Editions & Works on Paper: Online Auction auction at Phillips in 6 - in September this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 5,080.00 (€ 4,799.70) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pat Steir achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Elective Affinity Waterfall in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 2,295,000.00 (€ 1,966,580.98).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Sunlight on Water I; and Sunlight on Water II von Pat Steir wurde im September diesen Jahres in der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper: Online Auction bei Phillips in 6 - versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 5.080,00 (€ 4.799,70) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pat Steir erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Elective Affinity Waterfall im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.295.000,00 (€ 1.966.580,98).
