The work Christina by John Koch was sold in the American Art auction at Bonhams in New York in May 2021. The »bidding war« ended at USD 8,287.50 (€ 6,796.38), 66% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Koch achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Siesta in July 2020 with an auction result of USD 596,075.00 (€ 506,263.80).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 66 % übertroffen
