The work #114 by Elmer Nelson Bischoff was sold in the First Open Online: Post-War and Contemporary Art auction at Christies in New York in July 2018. The »bidding war« ended at USD 12,500.00 (€ 10,678.28), 56% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Elmer Nelson Bischoff achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Red Cliffs in May 2006 with an auction result of USD 564,800.00 (€ 440,115.33).
