Auction result misses estimated price range
In March 2009 a collector was able to acquire the work The Pill (Birth Control) by Robert Vickrey for USD 3,750.00 (€ 2,827.84). This price was achieved in the auction American Paintings at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Vickrey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Green Thought in May 2021 with an auction result of USD 35,312.50 (€ 28,958.91).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im März 2009 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Pill (Birth Control) von Robert Vickrey für USD 3.750,00 (€ 2.827,84) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion American Paintings bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Vickrey erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Green Thought im Mai 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 35.312,50 (€ 28.958,91).
