Upper estimate price exceeded by 49 %.
The work Mending the Tears (c. 1888) by Winslow Homer was auctioned at Bonhams in Hong Kong in May this year. It achieved a price of USD 4,462.50 (€ 4,188.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 49%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Winslow Homer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Where are the Boats? in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 4,572,500.00 (€ 3,918,166.24).
