Artwork auctioned at nine times the upper estimate price
The work Roof Tops: Brooklyn Heights by Herman Rose was worth USD 6,930.00 (€ 5,760.60) to a buyer in April 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Joseph H. Hirshhorn: Collector for a Nation, Part II at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 700.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Herman Rose; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Flowers On A Chair sold at auction in April 2021 with the realized price of USD 8,190.00 (€ 6,807.98).
