The work Running a Bank of Elk, Near the Cut Rocks of the Platte by Alfred Jacob Miller was sold in the Stewards of the West: The Knobloch Collection auction at Christies in New York in May last year. It achieved a price of USD 75,600.00 (€ 70,450.10), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 51%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alfred Jacob Miller achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pawnee Running a Buffalo in May 2016 with an auction result of USD 1,565,000.00 (€ 1,405,478.22).

Die Arbeit Running a Bank of Elk, Near the Cut Rocks of the Platte von Alfred Jacob Miller wurde im Mai letzten Jahres in der Auktion Stewards of the West: The Knobloch Collection bei Christies in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 75.600,00 (€ 70.450,10) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 51%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alfred Jacob Miller erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pawnee Running a Buffalo im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.565.000,00 (€ 1.405.478,22).
