Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May 2012 Sothebys in Toronto held the auction Important Canadian Art, which included the work Horse And Sleigh, Winter by Maud Lewis. The »bidding war« ended at CAD 8,400.00 (€ 6,564.28), 20% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Maud Lewis - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A View Of Sandy Cove, which sold at auction in November 2012 for CAD 20,400.00 (€ 15,788.44).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2012 führte Sothebys in Toronto die Auktion Important Canadian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Horse And Sleigh, Winter von Maud Lewis zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von CAD 8.400,00 (€ 6.564,28) und damit 20% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Maud Lewis mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A View Of Sandy Cove beobachtet, die im November 2012 für CAD 20.400,00 (€ 15.788,44) versteigert wurde.
