Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait Of A Gentleman Sitting In A Yellow Chair by Ammi Phillips was sold in the Important American Furniture and Folk Art auction at Christies in New York in January 2012. The price achieved of USD 9,375.00 (€ 7,182.26) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ammi Phillips achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of a Young Girl and her Cat in January 2007 with an auction result of USD 1,248,000.00 (€ 960,147.72).
