Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Gossip by Ron Gorchov was worth USD 69,300.00 (€ 64,579.26) to a buyer in May last year. This price was achieved in the auction Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 20,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ron Gorchov - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work General, which sold at auction in June this year for GBP 152,800.00 (€ 177,832.89).
