Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Hartley Elegies: The Berlin Series: one print by Robert Indiana was auctioned at Christies in New York in March this year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 756.00 (€ 695.36). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Indiana achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Love in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 3,495,000.00 (€ 3,086,637.82).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Hartley Elegies: The Berlin Series: one print von Robert Indiana im März diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 756,00 (€ 695,36) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Indiana erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Love im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.495.000,00 (€ 3.086.637,82).
