A top price for Howard Pyle - as previously expected
The work Here, André! A Spy! by Howard Pyle was sold in the American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction at Sothebys in New York in November 2007. The price achieved of USD 97,000.00 (€ 66,040.31) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Here, André! A Spy! is the most expensive artwork by Howard Pyle that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Here, André! A Spy! von Howard Pyle wurde im November 2007 in der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 97.000,00 (€ 66.040,31) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Here, André! A Spy! das teuerste Kunstwerk von Howard Pyle, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
