Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Arctic Whalers Homeward Bound by William Bradford was worth USD 62,500.00 (€ 45,061.28) to a buyer in April 2014. This price was achieved in the auction American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 20,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Bradford achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Midnight Sun, The Arctic in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 1,445,000.00 (€ 1,314,353.28).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Die Arbeit Arctic Whalers Homeward Bound von William Bradford war einem Käufer im April 2014 USD 62.500,00 (€ 45.061,28) wert. Dieser Preise wurde in der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und übertraf den zuvor angesetzten oberen Schätzpreis von USD 20.000,00 um ein Vielfaches. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Bradford erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Midnight Sun, The Arctic im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.445.000,00 (€ 1.314.353,28).
