The work White Horse by Gertrude Abercrombie was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale auction at Christies in New York in May last year. It achieved a price of USD 81,900.00 (€ 76,320.94), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 64%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gertrude Abercrombie - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Giraffe, which sold at auction in May 2021 for USD 365,400.00 (€ 299,655.57).
