Description

Moritz Stifter (AUSTRIAN, 1857-1905)
Through the Keyhole
signed 'Stifter' (lower left); inscribed indistinctly (on the reverse)
oil on panel
18¾ x 12½ in. (47.6 x 31.8 cm.)

Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

The work Through the Keyhole by Moritz Stifter was worth USD 9,000.00 (€ 6,819.73) to a buyer in December 2006. This price was achieved in the auction The House Sale at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 3,000.00 many times over. Admittedly, works by Moritz Stifter have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Rhamazan Bride in October 2007 with an auction result of USD 55,000.00 (€ 38,014.93).
