This artwork by Thomas Moran achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May last year. In the Stewards of the West: The Knobloch Collection auction, the work Grand Canyon, Colorado River sold for USD 2,340,000.00 (€ 2,180,598.27) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,000,000.00. Admittedly, works by Thomas Moran have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Green River of Wyoming in May 2008 with an auction result of USD 17,737,000.00 (€ 11,399,100.26).
