This fanciful piece by Saul Steinberg was offered on June 25, 2011 at Illustration House. It boasts an excellent provenance, having belonged to the prominent modern art curator William Lieberman, who passed away in 2005.
November 10, 2012 Update: Seven months prior to being offered at Illustration House, this drawing was one of two offered at Swann Galleries. Note that the selling price for the two drawings at Swann, while almost twice their high estimate, was still less than half the low estimate for the one drawing at Illustration House.
Does anyone happen to know the sale price at Illustration House?
