Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Plum Blossoms of Sugita, Japan by Theodore Wores was sold in the California and Western Art auction at Bonhams in Los Angeles in August 2020. The price achieved of USD 6,075.00 (€ 5,089.64) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Theodore Wores achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Chinese Musicians in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 483,000.00 (€ 426,565.40).

Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Theodore Wores erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Chinese Musicians im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 483.000,00 (€ 426.565,40).
