Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Clematis Montana And Tuberous Begonia by Morris Graves was sold in the American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Sothebys in New York in June 2016. Here, the upper estimate of USD 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 52,500.00 (€ 47,588.83). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Morris Graves - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bird Singing in the Moonlight, which sold at auction in November 2003 for USD 141,900.00 (€ 118,299.29).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Für andere Arbeiten von Morris Graves mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bird Singing in the Moonlight beobachtet, die im November 2003 für USD 141.900,00 (€ 118.299,29) versteigert wurde.
