Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work City Hall - Reno, Nevada, 1956 by Robert Frank was sold in the Important Photographs From a Private American Collection auction at Christies in New York in October 2007. It achieved a price of USD 58,600.00 (€ 40,503.18), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 17%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Frank achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Trolley - New Orleans, 1955 in April 2013 with an auction result of USD 663,750.00 (€ 504,062.88).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit City Hall - Reno, Nevada, 1956 von Robert Frank wurde im Oktober 2007 in der Auktion Important Photographs From a Private American Collection bei Christies in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 58.600,00 (€ 40.503,18) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 17%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Frank erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Trolley - New Orleans, 1955 im April 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 663.750,00 (€ 504.062,88).
