Auction result well in line with expectations
In July last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Discoveries, which included the work Andy Warhol, 'Flowers,' 1964 by Richard Pettibone. The price achieved of USD 15,120.00 (€ 14,820.62) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Pettibone achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Andy Warhol, "Saturday Disaster," 1964; Train Wreck; Jasper Johns, "Flag On Orange Field," 1957; Andy Warhol, "Double Elvis," 1963 (Two Times); Roy Lichtenstein, "We Rose Up Slowly," 1964; Frank Stella, "Tomlinson Court Park" 1959; Andy Warhol, "Larg in November 2006 with an auction result of USD 688,000.00 (€ 5
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Discoveries durch, in der auch die Arbeit Andy Warhol, 'Flowers,' 1964 von Richard Pettibone zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 15.120,00 (€ 14.820,62) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Richard Pettibone erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Andy Warhol, "Saturday Disaster," 1964; Train Wreck; Jasper Johns, "Flag On Orange Field," 1957; Andy Warhol, "Double Elvis," 1963 (Two Times); Roy Lichtenstein, "We Rose Up Slowly," 1964; Frank Stella, "Tomlinson Court Park" 1959; Andy Warhol, "Larg im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 688.000,00 (€ 518.814,57).
