Upper estimate price exceeded by 73 %.
The work The State Line House by Grandma Moses was sold in the Two Centuries: American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in October 2021. The »bidding war« ended at USD 60,480.00 (€ 52,354.57), 73% above the upper estimate. 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 um 73 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The State Line House von Grandma Moses wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Two Centuries: American Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 60.480,00 (€ 52.354,57) und damit 73% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
