Artwork auctioned at six times the upper estimate price
The work Brace Of Ducks by John William Hill was worth USD 6,250.00 (€ 5,665.34) to a buyer in June 2016. This price was achieved in the auction American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 900.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John William Hill - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hudson River at Caldwell, which sold at auction in October 2000 for USD 15,275.00 (€ 18,000.24).
