Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In September 2009 Christies in New York held the auction American Paintings, which included the work The Late Year by Bruce Crane. The »bidding war« ended at USD 11,875.00 (€ 8,116.88), 19% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Bruce Crane have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work After the Rain in March 2008 with an auction result of USD 51,400.00 (€ 32,521.35).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im September 2009 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Late Year von Bruce Crane zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 11.875,00 (€ 8.116,88) und damit 19% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Bruce Crane auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit After the Rain im März 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 51.400,00 (€ 32.521,35).
