Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Huckleberry Finn Suite by Norman Rockwell was sold in the Prints & Multiples | Live Online auction at Bonhams in January this year. Here, the upper estimate of USD 4,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 4,462.50 (€ 4,109.87). 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Huckleberry Finn Suite von Norman Rockwell wurde im Januar diesen Jahres in der Auktion Prints & Multiples | Live Online bei Bonhams versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 4.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 4.462,50 (€ 4.109,87) einen neuen Besitzer. 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).
