A top price for Warren W. Sheppard - as previously expected
The work The naval engagement between the C.S.S. Merrimac and the U.S.S. Monitor at Hampton Road by Warren W. Sheppard was sold in the Maritime auction at Christies in New York in February 2006. The price achieved of USD 48,000.00 (€ 40,251.57) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The naval engagement between the C.S.S. Merrimac and the U.S.S. Monitor at Hampton Road is the most expensive artwork by Warren W. Sheppard that we have observed at auctions so far.
