The work Queensborough Bridge by Johann Berthelsen was sold in the American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2010. It achieved a price of USD 13,750.00 (€ 10,165.61), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 72%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Johann Berthelsen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Flatiron Building, which sold at auction in March 2007 for USD 28,800.00 (€ 21,534.32).

Die Arbeit Queensborough Bridge von Johann Berthelsen wurde im März 2010 in der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 13.750,00 (€ 10.165,61) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 72%. Für andere Arbeiten von Johann Berthelsen mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Flatiron Building beobachtet, die im März 2007 für USD 28.800,00 (€ 21.534,32) versteigert wurde.
