Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Orioles and Tanagers by Roger Tory Peterson was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2010. The auction ended at the price of USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,352.40), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Roger Tory Peterson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work James Flamingos in the Andes, which sold at auction in September 2010 for USD 27,500.00 (€ 20,219.10).
