The work My Play Day by Nellie Mae Rowe was sold in the Outsider and Vernacular Art auction at Christies in January this year. It achieved a price of USD 7,560.00 (€ 6,962.61), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nellie Mae Rowe - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Orange Mule Prancing, 1980, which sold at auction in January 2019 for USD 22,500.00 (€ 19,643.79).
