Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Bust of a Young Man by Larkin Goldsmith Mead was sold in the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in September 2007. The price achieved of USD 15,000.00 (€ 10,549.27) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Larkin Goldsmith Mead - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Venezia, which sold at auction in May 2003 for USD 38,240.00 (€ 32,500.42).
