A top price for Frank B. Hoffman - as previously expected

The work Cattle Drive West by Frank B. Hoffman was sold in the American Art auction at Christies in New York in March 2015. The result of USD 25,000.00 (€ 23,275.30) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Cattle Drive West is the most expensive artwork by Frank B. Hoffman that we have observed at auctions so far.
