A top price for Robert Melvin Decker - as previously expected
In September 2012 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture, which included the work Winter Morning by Robert Melvin Decker. It changed hands for a price of USD 9,375.00 (€ 7,292.31) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Winter Morning is the most expensive artwork by Robert Melvin Decker that we have observed at auctions so far.
