The work John Wayne: First Unfinished Model for the Monument by Harry Jackson was auctioned at Christies in New York in May last year. It achieved a price of USD 37,800.00 (€ 35,225.05), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 51%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Harry Jackson; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot 'Sacagawea, Study for the Monument', A Bronze Figure sold at auction in November 2002 with the realized price of USD 47,800.00 (€ 48,127.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
