Upper estimate price exceeded by 91 %.
This artwork by Norman Rockwell achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in January this year. In the Prints & Multiples | Live Online auction, the work American Family sold for USD 5,737.50 (€ 5,284.12) - well above the upper estimate of USD 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Norman Rockwell achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Saying Grace in December 2013 with an auction result of USD 46,085,000.00 (€ 33,445,823.35).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Norman Rockwell erzielte im Januar diesen Jahres bei Bonhams einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Prints & Multiples | Live Online wurde die Arbeit American Family für USD 5.737,50 (€ 5.284,12) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Norman Rockwell erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Saying Grace im Dezember 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 46.085.000,00 (€ 33.445.823,35).
