The price achieved of USD 24,000.00 (€ 19,480.52) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ernest Trova - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Study/Falling Man (Wheel Man), which sold at auction in October 2020 for USD 63,000.00 (€ 54,091.18).
