Upper estimate price exceeded by 43 %.
The work Hide and Seek': A Pair of Bookends by Abastenia St. Leger Eberle was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2008. It achieved a price of USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,101.77), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 43%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Abastenia St. Leger Eberle achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Sea Treasures' in November 2006 with an auction result of USD 144,000.00 (€ 108,589.10).
