This artwork by Carl Rungius achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Los Angeles in November last year. In the Western Art auction, the work The Intruder 30 1/4 x 40 in. framed 35 x 45 in. sold for USD 529,575.00 (€ 513,004.94) - well above the upper estimate of USD 300,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Carl Rungius; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Alaskan Brown Bear-Out of the Shadows sold at auction in December 2002 with the realized price of USD 581,500.00 (€ 554,601.81).
