Despite a disappointment, a good price for Esther Bubley
In December 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work In the Waiting Room, Greyhound Bus Terminal, New York, c. 1949 by Esther Bubley for USD 2,500.00 (€ 1,895.95). This price was achieved in the auction The National Geographic Collection: The Art of Exploration at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, In the Waiting Room, Greyhound Bus Terminal, New York, c. 1949 is the most expensive artwork by Esther Bubley that we have observed at auction so far.
