Sold at the lower estimate price
In March 2008 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Paintings, which included the work Pond Lilies by Junius Brutus Stearns. The result of USD 5,000.00 (€ 3,163.56) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Junius Brutus Stearns achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Washington in the Indian Council, with related study in May last year with an auction result of USD 277,200.00 (€ 258,317.03).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im März 2008 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Pond Lilies von Junius Brutus Stearns zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 5.000,00 (€ 3.163,56) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Junius Brutus Stearns erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Washington in the Indian Council, with related study im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 277.200,00 (€ 258.317,03).
