A top price for Edwin Austin Abbey - as previously expected
The work Woman In White by Edwin Austin Abbey was sold in the American Paintings auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2009. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 8,125.00 (€ 6,126.99) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Woman In White is the most expensive artwork by Edwin Austin Abbey that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Woman In White von Edwin Austin Abbey wurde im März 2009 in der Auktion American Paintings bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 8.125,00 (€ 6.126,99) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Woman In White das teuerste Kunstwerk von Edwin Austin Abbey, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
