Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Mike Disfarmer could be acquired at Christies in New York in October 2011 for an unexpectedly low price. In the The American Landscape, Black and White Photographs from The Collection of Bruce and Nancy Berman auction, the work Heber Springs, Arkansas, c. 1940-1945 changed hands for USD 4,750.00 (€ 3,405.75) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00.
