Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Two Ducks by Roger Tory Peterson was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2010. The result of USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,352.40) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. 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).
