Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Snuffed Out Candle by John Frederick Peto was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2017. The result of USD 40,000.00 (€ 35,599.86) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Frederick Peto achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Old Time Letter Rack in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 850,000.00 (€ 773,148.99).
