In October 2008 Christies in Beverly Hills held the auction California, Western and American Paintings, Drawings, and Sculpture, which included the work 'Lion and Lioness' by Anna Hyatt Huntington. The »bidding war« ended at USD 37,500.00 (€ 29,569.47), 50% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Anna Hyatt Huntington have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Diana Of The Chase in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 225,000.00 (€ 189,107.41).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2008 führte Christies in Beverly Hills die Auktion California, Western and American Paintings, Drawings, and Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit 'Lion and Lioness' von Anna Hyatt Huntington zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 37.500,00 (€ 29.569,47) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Anna Hyatt Huntington auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Diana Of The Chase im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 225.000,00 (€ 189.107,41).
