Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Warren W. Sheppard achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in March 2021. In the Two Centuries: American Art auction, the work Moonlight Sail Off the Highlands sold for USD 13,860.00 (€ 11,802.78) - well above the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Warren W. Sheppard - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The naval engagement between the C.S.S. Merrimac and the U.S.S. Monitor at Hampton Road, which sold at auction in February 2006 for USD 48,000.00 (€ 40,251.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Warren W. Sheppard erzielte im März 2021 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Two Centuries: American Art wurde die Arbeit Moonlight Sail Off the Highlands für USD 13.860,00 (€ 11.802,78) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Warren W. Sheppard mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The naval engagement between the C.S.S. Merrimac and the U.S.S. Monitor at Hampton Road beobachtet, die im Februar 2006 für USD 48.000,00 (€ 40.251,57) versteigert wurde.
