Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Magnolia II by David Bates was sold in the Western Art auction at Bonhams in Los Angeles in August 2021. The »bidding war« ended at USD 24,062.50 (€ 20,391.95), 20% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Bates - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Trucks and Trailers, 1991, which sold at auction in September last year for USD 60,855.00 (€ 62,204.85).
