Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Going To Church by Grandma Moses was sold in the American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2021. Here, the upper estimate of USD 35,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 37,800.00 (€ 30,998.85). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Grandma Moses achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sugaring Off in November 2006 with an auction result of USD 1,360,000.00 (€ 1,025,563.68).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Going To Church von Grandma Moses wurde im Mai 2021 in der Auktion American Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 35.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 37.800,00 (€ 30.998,85) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Grandma Moses erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Sugaring Off im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.360.000,00 (€ 1.025.563,68).
