Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Continence Of Scipio by Johann Heiss was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2016. It achieved a price of USD 81,250.00 (€ 75,009.23), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 16%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Johann Heiss - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vulcan Surprising Venus And Mars In Bed Before An Assembly Of The Gods, which sold at auction in February 2013 for USD 206,500.00 (€ 157,886.69).
