Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Ernest Trova achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in September 2010. In the Contemporary Art auction, the work Falling Man, Figure In Sphere (Study) sold for USD 37,500.00 (€ 27,571.50) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Ernest Trova; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Study/Falling Man (Wheel Man) sold at auction in October 2020 with the realized price of USD 63,000.00 (€ 54,091.18).
