Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Portrait Of Our Landlord, The Buddhist Priest, At The Door Of The Clergy House, Iyemitsu Temple, Nikko (Portrait Of Suzuki) by John La Farge was sold in the American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2018. The result of USD 20,000.00 (€ 17,137.96) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John La Farge achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Last Valley--Paradise Rocks in November 2000 with an auction result of USD 2,096,000.00 (€ 2,410,858.06).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Portrait Of Our Landlord, The Buddhist Priest, At The Door Of The Clergy House, Iyemitsu Temple, Nikko (Portrait Of Suzuki) von John La Farge wurde im Mai 2018 in der Auktion American Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 17.137,96) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John La Farge erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Last Valley--Paradise Rocks im November 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.096.000,00 (€ 2.410.858,06).
