In May 2018 Sothebys in New York held the auction Property from the Estate of Bernard Chappard Online, which included the work Cuatro Elementos by Francisco Matto. The »bidding war« ended at USD 27,500.00 (€ 23,564.70), 25% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francisco Matto - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Constructivo en rojo y azul, which sold at auction in May 2015 for USD 56,250.00 (€ 51,164.27).
