Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Still Life with Fruit and Vase by William Michael Harnett was sold in the Important American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in May 2003. It changed hands for a price of USD 45,410.00 (€ 38,594.25) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Michael Harnett achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Still Life With Violin in November 2019 with an auction result of USD 500,000.00 (€ 453,761.68).
