Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
The work Night Shadows, from Six American Etchings (Series I) by Edward Hopper was sold in the Tales of the City: New York Prints and Photographs of the Early 20th Century auction at Christies in Sydney in August this year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 37,800.00 (€ 34,874.07), 26% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Hopper achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Chop Suey in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 91,875,000.00 (€ 81,140,157.20).

Die Arbeit Night Shadows, from Six American Etchings (Series I) von Edward Hopper wurde im August diesen Jahres in der Auktion Tales of the City: New York Prints and Photographs of the Early 20th Century bei Christies in Sydney versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 37.800,00 (€ 34.874,07) und damit 26% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Hopper erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Chop Suey im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 91.875.000,00 (€ 81.140.157,20).
