a painting by clarice beckett for $1,200, estimated by deuthscher-menzies auction house at $30-40,000 a month ago (last two paintings by her sold at TWICE the top estimate) (the same lot of paintings also contained oils by emile gruppe (est $7-10,000), eric thake ($3-5000) and a.a neuville ($5-7000) as well as a couple of lesser known artists... i ended up paying $3000 for the lot, including the beckett) a real "antiques roadshow" moment!!!... i find it a bit like fishing if you go to the right place at the right time, something's bound to bite sooner or later... |
