In January 2010 Sothebys in New York held the auction Important Old Master Paintings and Sculpture, which included the work Still Life With Wallnuts, A Pipe And Hourglass On A Grey Marble Ledge by Miguel Parra. The »bidding war« ended at USD 25,000.00 (€ 18,024.51), 67% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Miguel Parra - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An Outdoor Scene With A Fountain, An Urn And A Basket Of Roses, Peonies, Poppies, Hydrangeas And Other Flowers, which sold at auction in January 2017 for USD 68,750.00 (€ 63,692.79).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 67 % übertroffen
