The work Crest of the Wave by Harriet Whitney Frishmuth was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in May 2021. It achieved a price of USD 15,300.00 (€ 12,547.15), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 28%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Harriet Whitney Frishmuth achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Vine in May 2009 with an auction result of USD 962,500.00 (€ 681,367.69).
