Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Monterey Pine; Sea Coast - Pacific Grove (a group of two) by Maurice August Del Mue was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in December 2021. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 3,500.00 – 5,500.00, the actual price achieved of USD 3,570.00 (€ 3,154.27) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Maurice August Del Mue - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Spring Fog near Pt. Reyes-Marin County, which sold at auction in August 2020 for USD 9,000.00 (€ 7,540.21).
