Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work She Is a Tree of Life to Them by Consuelo Kanaga was auctioned at Phillips in New York in October 2020. It achieved a price of USD 35,000.00 (€ 30,050.66), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 17%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Consuelo Kanaga - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Profile of a Young Girl from the Tennessee Series, which sold at auction in April 2019 for USD 106,250.00 (€ 94,857.60).
