Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ralph Eugene Meatyard could be acquired at Phillips in New York in October 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the A Constant Pursuit: Photographs from the Collection of Ed Cohen & Victoria Shaw auction, the work Lucybelle Crater and Lucybelle Crater changed hands for USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,618.43) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ralph Eugene Meatyard - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled, (Flag - derelict interior with Christopher), 1960, which sold at auction in April 2007 for USD 33,600.00 (€ 24,597.36).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ralph Eugene Meatyard konnte im Oktober 2018 bei Phillips in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion A Constant Pursuit: Photographs from the Collection of Ed Cohen & Victoria Shaw wechselte die Arbeit Lucybelle Crater and Lucybelle Crater für USD 7.500,00 (€ 6.618,43) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Ralph Eugene Meatyard mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled, (Flag - derelict interior with Christopher), 1960 beobachtet, die im April 2007 für USD 33.600,00 (€ 24.597,36) versteigert wurde.
