Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
The work Maternal Caress by Mary Cassatt was auctioned at Christies in New York in October last year. It achieved a price of USD 63,000.00 (€ 63,418.56), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mary Cassatt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Young Lady In A Loge Gazing To Right in October last year with an auction result of USD 7,489,000.00 (€ 7,538,755.79).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Maternal Caress von Mary Cassatt kam im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 63.000,00 (€ 63.418,56) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 26%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mary Cassatt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Young Lady In A Loge Gazing To Right im Oktober letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.489.000,00 (€ 7.538.755,79).
