This artwork by Léon Dabo achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March 2010. In the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction, the work Midsummer Night sold for USD 43,750.00 (€ 32,345.11) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Léon Dabo; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Twilight On The Hudson (Harmony In Green And Blue) sold at auction in July 2019 with the realized price of USD 43,750.00 (€ 39,308.18).
