Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Timber Wolves by Martin Grelle was sold in the Visions of the West: American Paintings from the William I. Koch Collection auction at Christies in New York in May 2015. Here, the upper estimate of USD 70,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 75,000.00 (€ 68,219.03).
