Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Lockwood de Forest achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Los Angeles in December last year. In the California and Western Art Online auction, the work Nocturne with Large Rock and Nocturne from Santa Cruz Island (a group of two) first 9 1/2 x 13 1/2 in.; second 9 x 13 1/2 first framed 15 1/2 x 19 1/2 in.; second framed 15 x 19 1/2 sold for USD 6,375.00 (€ 5,959.06) - well above the upper estimate of USD 2,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lockwood de Forest - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sunset Beyond a Valley, which sold at auction in April this year for USD 17,850.00 (€ 16,168.48).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Lockwood de Forest erzielte im Dezember letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles einen unerwartet hohen Preis.

Für andere Arbeiten von Lockwood de Forest mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sunset Beyond a Valley beobachtet, die im April diesen Jahres für USD 17.850,00 (€ 16.168,48) versteigert wurde.
