Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Spirit Of The Waterfall by Thomas Buchanan Read was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2008. The price achieved of USD 8,125.00 (€ 5,140.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Buchanan Read - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Pair of Portraits of Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Robert Browning, which sold at auction in September 2010 for USD 20,000.00 (€ 14,704.80).
