Sold at the lower estimate price

The work The Station by Dennis Miller Bunker was sold in the American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2018. The result of USD 200,000.00 (€ 171,379.61) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dennis Miller Bunker - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Winter'S Tale Of Sprites And Goblins, which sold at auction in June 2020 for USD 596,000.00 (€ 530,674.03).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
