Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work Small Child by Isamu Noguchi was worth USD 189,000.00 (€ 158,185.47) to a buyer in November 2020. This price was achieved in the auction Property from the Collection of Nelson Rockefeller: Eastern Traditions & Western Visions at Sothebys in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 35,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Isamu Noguchi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Garden Elements in May 2017 with an auction result of USD 4,727,500.00 (€ 4,207,458.17).
