Despite a disappointment, a good price for Jefferson David Chalfant
This work of art by Jefferson David Chalfant could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in December 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction, the work The Old Flintlock (The Old Horse Pistol) changed hands for USD 722,500.00 (€ 519,074.65) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 750,000.00 – 1,000,000.00.
