Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Winthrop Chandler could be acquired at Christies in New York in January 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Important American Furniture, Folk Art and Silver auction, the work A Pair of Portraits of The Reverend and Mrs. Quackenbush changed hands for USD 3,125.00 (€ 2,817.09) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 10,000.00.

Dieses Kunstwerk von Winthrop Chandler konnte im Januar 2020 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Important American Furniture, Folk Art and Silver wechselte die Arbeit A Pair of Portraits of The Reverend and Mrs. Quackenbush für USD 3.125,00 (€ 2.817,09) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 10.000,00.
