Georgia O’Keeffe is The Highest-Selling Woman In Art Auction History

March 19th, 2015

Georgia O’Keeffe, one of the godmothers of modernist painting, has just made history at Sotheby’s auction. A work by the late American artist smashed records Thursday morning when it sold for $44.4 million — a price three times larger than the previous auction record for a female artist. Congratulations Georgia, you are now (posthumously) the highest-selling woman in art. Content courtesy of the Huffington Post.
