Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A Soldier's Farewell at Pennsylvania Station, NYC by Alfred Eisenstaedt was sold in the Prints & Photographs auction at Bonhams in Skinner Boston in January 2024. The price achieved of USD 1,920.00 (€ 1,678.03) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alfred Eisenstaedt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Children At A Puppet Theatre, Paris' in October 2008 with an auction result of USD 50,000.00 (€ 39,425.96).
