Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Buffalo Hunt, Approaching in a Ravine, 1844 by George Catlin was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2000. The price achieved of USD 1,880.00 (€ 2,015.44) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Catlin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Interior Of A Mandan Lodge in December 2011 with an auction result of USD 1,538,500.00 (€ 1,185,924.61).
