This artwork by Joseph Francis Kernan achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in April 2014. In the American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction, the work Boss Of The Block sold for USD 18,750.00 (€ 13,518.39) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joseph Francis Kernan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bad Moment for a Tangled Line!, which sold at auction in September last year for USD 40,695.00 (€ 41,597.67).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Joseph Francis Kernan erzielte im April 2014 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture wurde die Arbeit Boss Of The Block für USD 18.750,00 (€ 13.518,39) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 7.000,00.
