A top price for Paul Revere - as previously expected
In January last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Important Americana, which included the work A View of Part of the Town of Boston in New-England and Brittish Ships of War: Landing Their Troops! 1768 (Brigham Plate 24) by Paul Revere. The price achieved of USD 721,800.00 (€ 643,774.53) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 600,000.00 – 800,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A View of Part of the Town of Boston in New-England and Brittish Ships of War: Landing Their Troops! 1768 (Brigham Plate 24) is the most expensive artwork by Paul Revere that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Januar letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Important Americana durch, in der auch die Arbeit A View of Part of the Town of Boston in New-England and Brittish Ships of War: Landing Their Troops! 1768 (Brigham Plate 24) von Paul Revere zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 721.800,00 (€ 643.774,53) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 600.000,00 – 800.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist A View of Part of the Town of Boston in New-England and Brittish Ships of War: Landing Their Troops! 1768 (Brigham Plate 24) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Paul Revere, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
