A top price for Charles Henry Gifford - as previously expected
The work Lake George by Charles Henry Gifford was sold in the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in September 2004. The price achieved of USD 20,315.00 (€ 16,360.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Lake George is the most expensive artwork by Charles Henry Gifford that we have observed at auctions so far.
