The work Franklin At The French Court by Stanley Arthurs was sold in the American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in September 2019. The »bidding war« ended at USD 8,125.00 (€ 7,450.71), 35% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Stanley Arthurs - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Waiting at the Ford, which sold at auction in May 2005 for USD 24,000.00 (€ 19,434.77).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
