Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Under Watchful Eyes by Oscar Edmund Berninghaus was sold in the American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2018. The price achieved of USD 137,500.00 (€ 117,823.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. Admittedly, works by Oscar Edmund Berninghaus have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Ancient Forest of the Indians 25 x 30 in. framed 30 x 35 in. in November last year with an auction result of USD 542,175.00 (€ 525,210.69).
