A top price for Larry Poons - as previously expected
The work Jessica's Hartford by Larry Poons was auctioned at Phillips in New York in November 2019. The price achieved of USD 1,150,000.00 (€ 1,043,651.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000,000.00 – 1,500,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Jessica's Hartford is the most expensive artwork by Larry Poons that we have observed at auctions so far.
