Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Brooklyn Bridge (View of Lower Manhattan and the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center) by Alfred Eisenstaedt was sold in the The Gift of Photographs auction at Bonhams in New York in December this year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,408.00 (€ 1,272.83), 17% above the upper estimate. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Brooklyn Bridge (View of Lower Manhattan and the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center) von Alfred Eisenstaedt wurde im Dezember diesen Jahres in der Auktion The Gift of Photographs bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 1.408,00 (€ 1.272,83) und damit 17% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alfred Eisenstaedt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Children At A Puppet Theatre, Paris' im Oktober 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 50.000,00 (€ 39.425,96).
