Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
The work Saint John before God and the Elders, from: The Apocalypse by Albrecht Dürer was sold in the Prints & Multiples auction at Christies in London in March 2018. It achieved a price of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,539.16), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Albrecht Dürer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Christ Being Nailed To The Cross in January 2016 with an auction result of USD 874,000.00 (€ 806,868.54).

Die Arbeit Saint John before God and the Elders, from: The Apocalypse von Albrecht Dürer wurde im März 2018 in der Auktion Prints & Multiples bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 7.500,00 (€ 8.539,16) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 50%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Albrecht Dürer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Christ Being Nailed To The Cross im Januar 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 874.000,00 (€ 806.868,54).
