Upper estimate price exceeded by 46 %.
In September last year Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts held the auction Prints & Photographs, which included the work Three Proof Impressions of Rainbow Cove by Frank Weston Benson. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,020.00 (€ 1,042.62), 46% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frank Weston Benson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Reader in November 2016 with an auction result of USD 2,887,500.00 (€ 2,729,722.06).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 46 % übertroffen
Im September letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts die Auktion Prints & Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Three Proof Impressions of Rainbow Cove von Frank Weston Benson zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 1.020,00 (€ 1.042,62) und damit 46% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frank Weston Benson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Reader im November 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.887.500,00 (€ 2.729.722,06).
