The work Die Lotsenkutter by Theodore Lux Feininger was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in June 2016. It achieved a price of USD 11,875.00 (€ 10,764.14), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 70%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Theodore Lux Feininger - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Schiff Im Golf Von Siam (Ship In The Gulf Of Siam), which sold at auction in February 2019 for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 26,247.03).
