A top price for Carl Adolph Heinrich Hess - as previously expected
The work Ural Cossacks with their Ataman D.M. Borodin during the Suvorov Swiss Campaign in 1790 by Carl Adolph Heinrich Hess was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2003. The price achieved of USD 57,360.00 (€ 49,409.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Ural Cossacks with their Ataman D.M. Borodin during the Suvorov Swiss Campaign in 1790 is the most expensive artwork by Carl Adolph Heinrich Hess that we have observed at auctions so far.
