Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Maryland Yellowthroats by John James Audubon was sold in the American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2013. It achieved a price of USD 118,750 (€ 90,181), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 19%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John James Audubon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work in June 2018 with an auction result of USD 9,650,000 (€ 8,264,109).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Maryland Yellowthroats von John James Audubon wurde im April 2013 in der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 118.750 (€ 90.181) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 19%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John James Audubon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit im Juni 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 9.650.000 (€ 8.264.109).
