Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Artist's Children, James and Lili by Theodore Earl Butler was sold in the American Art auction at Christies in New York in May 2016. Here, the upper estimate of USD 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 52,500.00 (€ 47,148.63). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Theodore Earl Butler achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Flag Day in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 552,500.00 (€ 487,944.89).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Artist's Children, James and Lili von Theodore Earl Butler wurde im Mai 2016 in der Auktion American Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 50.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 52.500,00 (€ 47.148,63) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Theodore Earl Butler erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Flag Day im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 552.500,00 (€ 487.944,89).
