This artwork by Louis Kronberg achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in New York in September this year. In the American Art | Bonhams Skinner auction, the work Louis Kronberg (American, 1872-1965) sold for USD 3,584.00 (€ 3,386.24) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Louis Kronberg - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ballet in White, which sold at auction in September 2011 for USD 12,500.00 (€ 9,294.37).
