Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Clearing Storm, Sonoma County Hills, California, 1951 by Ansel Adams was sold in the Ansel Adams and the American West: Photographs from the Center for Creative Photography auction at Christies in New York in December 2019. Here, the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,680.32). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ansel Adams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming in December 2020 with an auction result of USD 988,000.00 (€ 807,849.55).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
