Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by John Henry Twachtman achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Paris in May this year. In the American Art auction, the work Grinnell's Wharf sold for USD 12,800.00 (€ 12,014.27) - well above the upper estimate of USD 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Henry Twachtman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hemlocks in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 600,000.00 (€ 445,997.18).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Henry Twachtman erzielte im Mai diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Paris einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion American Art wurde die Arbeit Grinnell's Wharf für USD 12.800,00 (€ 12.014,27) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Henry Twachtman erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hemlocks im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 600.000,00 (€ 445.997,18).
