Sold at the lower estimate price
The work The Fruit Sellers by William Henry Fox Talbot was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2018. The result of USD 15,000.00 (€ 12,423.39) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Henry Fox Talbot achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work William Henry Fox Talbot’S Gifts To His Sister: Horatia Gaisford’S Collection Of Photographs And Ephemera in April 2021 with an auction result of USD 1,956,000.00 (€ 1,625,935.16).
