Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'Hide And Seek': Bookends by Abastenia St. Leger Eberle was sold in the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in September 2004. The price achieved of USD 5,377.50 (€ 4,330.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Abastenia St. Leger Eberle achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Sea Treasures' in November 2006 with an auction result of USD 144,000.00 (€ 108,589.10).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 5.377,50 (€ 4.330,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Abastenia St. Leger Eberle erzielen.
