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
Die Arbeit Omar Khayyam Bookends von Abastenia St. Leger Eberle wurde im Mai 2021 in der Auktion American Art bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 5.355,00 (€ 4.391,50) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 53%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Abastenia St. Leger Eberle erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Sea Treasures' im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 144.000,00 (€ 108.589,10).
