Upper estimate price exceeded by 72 %.
The work Feeding The Turkey by Eastman Johnson was sold in the American Paintings auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2011. It achieved a price of USD 34,375.00 (€ 23,193.44), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 72%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eastman Johnson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Little Soldier in May 2005 with an auction result of USD 856,000.00 (€ 693,173.54).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 72 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Feeding The Turkey von Eastman Johnson wurde im April 2011 in der Auktion American Paintings bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 34.375,00 (€ 23.193,44) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 72%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Eastman Johnson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Little Soldier im Mai 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 856.000,00 (€ 693.173,54).
