The work Abstract Composition (Untitled) by Charles Houghton Howard was worth USD 33,750.00 (€ 24,827.13) to a buyer in October 2013. This price was achieved in the auction American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 9,000.00 many times over.
