The work Lavender & Green Hill—Ghost Ranch by Georgia O'Keeffe was sold in the Modern American Masterworks from the Ted Shen Collection auction at Christies in New York in April this year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,071,000.00 (€ 970,108.70), 34% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Georgia O'Keeffe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 in November 2014 with an auction result of USD 44,405,000.00 (€ 35,701,077.34).
