A top price for Fitch Burt Fulton - as previously expected

The work Sierra Lake by Fitch Burt Fulton was sold in the CALIFORNIA, WESTERN AND AMERICAN PAINTINGS auction at Christies in Los Angeles in June 2002. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 4,182.50 (€ 4,243.61) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Sierra Lake is the most expensive artwork by Fitch Burt Fulton that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Die Arbeit Sierra Lake von Fitch Burt Fulton wurde im Juni 2002 in der Auktion CALIFORNIA, WESTERN AND AMERICAN PAINTINGS bei Christies in Los Angeles versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 4.182,50 (€ 4.243,61) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Sierra Lake das teuerste Kunstwerk von Fitch Burt Fulton, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
