Purchased in an estate sale in Lake Forest, Il
Dear Jeff,
What a fabulous serigraph by Leroy Neiman. His work has a solid collector base and if your example of 'Left Bank Cafe', which is, as you know, a signed and numbered serigraph, was offered at auction, in today's market you should expect between $1300USD and $1500USD.
Thank you for taking time to upload images, please let me know if you have any follow-up questions.
Sincerely,
Erin-Marie
You aren't the only 'Sucker for Neiman' he is an excellent painter and master colorist, I am a fan too! Being said, the track record of this piece at auction sits squarely between $1300 - $1500USD. While you didn't ask... gallery prices are usually at least 2.5 the average auction price so, all things considered, your $1800 price point is quite reasonable.
Sincerely,
Erin-Marie
Thanks again. As I am sure you know, if you love the piece, how others value the it doesn’t really matter.
BINGO!
Thank you. The appraisal is surprising in the it is such a gorgeous piece. I love it and imagined it would be higher in value. It was purchased for $1,800. My bad, as I am a sucker for Neiman.
