The work Idle Moments by George de Forest Brush was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in July 2020. It achieved a price of USD 12,575.00 (€ 10,680.31), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 57%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George de Forest Brush achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Council of the War Party in December 2005 with an auction result of USD 2,592,000.00 (€ 2,188,819.46).
