The work Sam's Art, from New York International by Saul Steinberg was sold in the A Graphic Century - 1875-1975 auction at Christies in New York in November 2021. It achieved a price of USD 1,125.00 (€ 996.72), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 61%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Saul Steinberg achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Twenty Americans (Twenty Professions) in November last year with an auction result of USD 113,400.00 (€ 109,851.79).
