Upper estimate price exceeded by 46 %.
The work Old Man Reading Paper by Louis Charles Moeller was sold in the American Paintings auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2011. The »bidding war« ended at USD 4,375.00 (€ 2,951.89), 46% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louis Charles Moeller achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Art Critic in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 60,000.00 (€ 54,575.22).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 46 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Old Man Reading Paper von Louis Charles Moeller wurde im April 2011 in der Auktion American Paintings bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 4.375,00 (€ 2.951,89) und damit 46% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Louis Charles Moeller erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Art Critic im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 60.000,00 (€ 54.575,22).
