Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Times Square By Night by Luigi Rocca was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2010. Here, the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 7,500.00 (€ 5,544.88). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Luigi Rocca - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work "What's for lunch?"., which sold at auction in June this year for EUR 14,520.00.
