A top price for Mather Brown
When the work Portrait of Major Norton, the Mohawk Chief Teyoninhokarawen by Mather Brown was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2007, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 46,100.00 (€ 66,104.01). This high result makes Portrait of Major Norton, the Mohawk Chief Teyoninhokarawen the most expensive artwork by Mather Brown that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Mather Brown
Als die Arbeit Portrait of Major Norton, the Mohawk Chief Teyoninhokarawen von Mather Brown im September 2007 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 8.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 46.100,00 (€ 66.104,01) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Portrait of Major Norton, the Mohawk Chief Teyoninhokarawen zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Mather Brown, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
