Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In September 2020 Bonhams in Los Angeles held the auction Prints & Multiples, which included the work Sultry Night by Grant Wood. Here, the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 5,700.00 (€ 4,864.31). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Grant Wood achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Study for "February" in December 2008 with an auction result of USD 1,058,500.00 (€ 760,471.30).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im September 2020 führte Bonhams in Los Angeles die Auktion Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sultry Night von Grant Wood zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 5.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 5.700,00 (€ 4.864,31) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Grant Wood erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Study for "February" im Dezember 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.058.500,00 (€ 760.471,30).
