Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Night Scene, Pittsburgh by George William Sotter was sold in the American Art Online auction at Christies in New York in November 2017. It changed hands for a price of USD 56,250.00 (€ 47,276.85) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George William Sotter - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Miller'S House, which sold at auction in May 2006 for USD 192,000.00 (€ 149,614.28).
