The work Omar Khayyam Bookends by Abastenia St. Leger Eberle was sold in the American Art auction at Bonhams in New York in May 2021. It achieved a price of USD 5,355.00 (€ 4,391.50), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 53%. 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).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 53 % übertroffen
