Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by William Bradford achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in November 2014. In the American Art auction, the work Icebergs, Labrador sold for USD 87,500.00 (€ 70,348.93) - well above the upper estimate of USD 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Bradford achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Midnight Sun, The Arctic in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 1,445,000.00 (€ 1,314,353.28).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von William Bradford erzielte im November 2014 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion American Art wurde die Arbeit Icebergs, Labrador für USD 87.500,00 (€ 70.348,93) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 35.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Bradford erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Midnight Sun, The Arctic im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.445.000,00 (€ 1.314.353,28).
