A top price for Robert Spear Dunning - as previously expected
The work A Fruit Picture by Robert Spear Dunning was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2017. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 300,000.00 – 500,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 324,500.00 (€ 288,803.84) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A Fruit Picture is the most expensive artwork by Robert Spear Dunning that we have observed at auctions so far.
