Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2017 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Hunting Elk By Moonlight by Alfred Jacob Miller. The price achieved of USD 200,000.00 (€ 168,095.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 150,000.00 – 250,000.00. Admittedly, works by Alfred Jacob Miller have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Pawnee Running a Buffalo in May 2016 with an auction result of USD 1,565,000.00 (€ 1,405,478.22).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2017 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Hunting Elk By Moonlight von Alfred Jacob Miller zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 200.000,00 (€ 168.095,48) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 150.000,00 – 250.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alfred Jacob Miller auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Pawnee Running a Buffalo im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.565.000,00 (€ 1.405.478,22).
