I missed this last week other amid Carol Vogel’s extensive reporting on London’s big art auctions. Richard Prince’s “Overseas Nurse,” part of the series from which Sonic Youth got the cover of their 2004 album Sonic Nurse, sold at Sotheby’s on July 1 for $7.4 million, which including Sotheby’s fee comes to $8.4 million. (You think Ticketmaster is bad?) That may sound like a lot, but it was actually “under the low estimate,” Vogel reports.
