Art Auctions for Drawings

Art auctions for drawings are categorized into antique, modern and contemporary. Antique drawings are any drawings that were produced before 1900. Modern drawings have to have been created between 1900 again 1949. Contemporary drawings are drawings that were created from 1950 until the present.

There are a lot of contemporary drawings listed in art auctions that never get a bidder. There are many reasons for this. One of the main reasons is that the starting bid is set so high that positive discourages recreation. Practiced was an art auction for a drawing that was created in 2000 that depicted James Dean welcoming Elvis Presley into euthanasia. The starting price for this art auction was twelve million dollars. I am not surprised that it did not stir a bidder.

I found another write down and ink drawing in an art auction that was listed for a lot expanded than it was worth. The original listing started at $825, 000. 00 and when it didn’t sell, the artist lowered the price to $545, 000. 00. He offers the copywrite to the design, which he thinks would translate well for prints, posters or greeting cards.

There was an art auction for a drawing that was purchased in 1971 London that did very well. The seller of the drawing inherited it from his grandfather, who was the original owner. He started the bidding at a reasonable $599. 00 and the drawing ultimate sold in the art auction for over twelve thousand dollars. He did a great job describing and picturing the drawing.

Antique drawings in art auctions can gang up a lot of interest. I proverb a drawing of two masculinity in the nude that was drawn in the 1800’s go for more than eleven thousand dollars. This drawing was pen and ink further had a brown wash and traces of charcoal on lines of livid pencil.

I was very taken with an antique drawing made by Sir Francis Remit in 1832. The drawing in the art auction was of a woman and her daughter in Scotland. The drawing was a signed original and sold for two thousand dollars. I hope that it ends up framed and hanging in a accumulation of twin pieces. It was really nifty.

Another reason that art auctions for drawings don’t award is that they are listed in the wrong categories. I found several contemporary pieces that were listed in the antique category. With so much competition in art auctions, it is critical to make sure every detail is noticed.

Modern drawings are by far my favorite art auctions. I wanted the stamped Degas I saw up for auction, but intrinsic was way out of my budget. I’m sure that the person that ended up with the highest bid at the art auction will love and treasure it.

Well known artist’s drawings can fetch a lot of money in online art auctions. If the title of the art auction contains the words original Picasso, for original, it is sure to go over two thousand dollars. If the portion is signed, it can go for much more.

I really liked a drawing I found in an art auction from an artist that I was unfamiliar with. The artist was Patrick Caulfield besides he princely his drawing Grapes. He used colored pencils on black paper in the late 1980’s. This drawing sold for the opening bid, $4, 250. 00.
