Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'Russian Dancers' by Malvina Hoffman was sold in the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in September 2010. The price achieved of USD 18,750.00 (€ 13,785.75) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Malvina Hoffman - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 'La Frileuse', which sold at auction in December 2002 for USD 53,775.00 (€ 51,287.55).
