Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Willow Song by Laverne Nelson Black was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2012. The price achieved of USD 56,250.00 (€ 43,753.89) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Laverne Nelson Black - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Apache at Watering Hole 31 1/2 x 41 1/2 in. framed 38 x 48 in., which sold at auction in November last year for USD 101,175.00 (€ 98,009.30).
