Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Warren W. Sheppard could be acquired at Christies in New York in January 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Maritime Art Including Fine Paintings, Nautical Antiques, Scrimshaw And Ship Models auction, the work Admiral Dewey's flagship entering Manila Bay changed hands for USD 18,750.00 (€ 12,633.92) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Warren W. Sheppard - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The naval engagement between the C.S.S. Merrimac and the U.S.S. Monitor at Hampton Road, which sold at auction in February 2006 for USD 48,000.00 (€ 40,251.57).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Warren W. Sheppard konnte im Januar 2008 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Maritime Art Including Fine Paintings, Nautical Antiques, Scrimshaw And Ship Models wechselte die Arbeit Admiral Dewey's flagship entering Manila Bay für USD 18.750,00 (€ 12.633,92) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Warren W. Sheppard mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The naval engagement between the C.S.S. Merrimac and the U.S.S. Monitor at Hampton Road beobachtet, die im Februar 2006 für USD 48.000,00 (€ 40.251,57) versteigert wurde.
