Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2001 a collector was able to acquire the work The Winter Crossing from Levis to Quebec by Cornelius Krieghoff for USD 41,125.00 (€ 45,908.68). This price was achieved in the auction Important American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cornelius Krieghoff - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Visitors In Winter, which sold at auction in November 2012 for CAD 221,000.00 (€ 171,041.43).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2001 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Winter Crossing from Levis to Quebec von Cornelius Krieghoff für USD 41.125,00 (€ 45.908,68) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Important American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 50.000,00 – 70.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Cornelius Krieghoff mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Visitors In Winter beobachtet, die im November 2012 für CAD 221.000,00 (€ 171.041,43) versteigert wurde.
