A man purchased a small painting for $30 at a flea market, later discovering it was by Gertrude Abercrombie. The artwork sold for $1.35 million at auction, setting a record for the artist. The painting, depicting shells, had not been publicly displayed for 75 years and exceeded its estimated value significantly. Abercrombie, a notable surrealist, had a rich artistic career in Chicago, and her works have gained increasing interest in recent years. The auction attracted multiple bidders, highlighting the growing market for her art.
