Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
The work Reverend James P. Turner by Thomas Eakins was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2015. It achieved a price of USD 221,000.00 (€ 209,240.67), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 47%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Eakins achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Cowboys in the Badlands in May 2003 with an auction result of USD 5,383,500.00 (€ 4,575,471.70).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Reverend James P. Turner von Thomas Eakins kam im November 2015 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 221.000,00 (€ 209.240,67) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 47%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Eakins erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Cowboys in the Badlands im Mai 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.383.500,00 (€ 4.575.471,70).
