Upper estimate price exceeded by 59 %.
The work Huckleberry Finn Suite by Norman Rockwell was sold in the Prints & Multiples auction at Bonhams in Los Angeles in September last year. It achieved a price of USD 6,375.00 (€ 6,516.41), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 59%. 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 um 59 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Huckleberry Finn Suite von Norman Rockwell wurde im September letzten Jahres in der Auktion Prints & Multiples bei Bonhams in Los Angeles versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 6.375,00 (€ 6.516,41) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 59%. 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).
