This artwork by David Hockney achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May this year. In the 20th Century Evening Sale auction, the work Felled Trees sold for USD 10,760,000.00 (€ 10,099,493.15) - well above the upper estimate of USD 6,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Hockney - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nichols Canyon, which sold at auction in December 2020 for USD 41,067,500.00 (€ 33,579,313.16).
