The work The Rattlesnake by Frederic Remington was auctioned at Christies in New York in May last year. It achieved a price of USD 504,000.00 (€ 469,667.32), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 68%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frederic Remington achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Coming Through the Rye in May 2017 with an auction result of USD 11,223,500.00 (€ 9,988,875.04).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Rattlesnake von Frederic Remington kam im Mai letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 504.000,00 (€ 469.667,32) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 68%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frederic Remington erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Coming Through the Rye im Mai 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 11.223.500,00 (€ 9.988.875,04).
