Upper estimate price exceeded by 46 %.
The work Flowers By A Blue River by John Kørner was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2020. It achieved a price of USD 1,750.00 (€ 1,597.44), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 46%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Kørner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Bird Man in October 2014 with an auction result of GBP 18,750.00 (€ 23,941.04).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 46 % übertroffen
