Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In July 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Bette Davis Eyes and Other Natural Phenomena: Photographs at No Reserve, which included the work Untitled (Fireplace with Cinderella and Stepmother) (from Cinderella) by William Wegman. The »bidding war« ended at USD 3,528.00 (€ 2,973.70), 18% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Wegman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work On and On, 2015 in October 2019 with an auction result of USD 50,000.00 (€ 44,822.95).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juli 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Bette Davis Eyes and Other Natural Phenomena: Photographs at No Reserve durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (Fireplace with Cinderella and Stepmother) (from Cinderella) von William Wegman zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 3.528,00 (€ 2.973,70) und damit 18% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Wegman erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit On and On, 2015 im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 50.000,00 (€ 44.822,95).
