US President Donald Trump (Photo: AFP) A black-marker drawing of the Empire State Building by US President Donald Trump sold at auction for $16,000, the media reported. According to Julien’s Auctions in Los Angeles, where the sale took place, Trump created the 12-by-9-inch drawing at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida for a charity auction that took place in 1995. At the time, the signed sketch sold for less than $100, the New York Times reported on Friday.
. This was not the first work of art by Trump to fall into the eager hands of collectors in the wake of his presidency. In July, a similarly sized drawing of a more comprehensive Manhattan skyline sold for $29,000 at Nate D. Sanders Auctions. Trump’s sketch was created while he was still pursuing the prized property. A representative of Julien’s Auctions wrote in a statement that the artwork “symbolised his ascent” through the ranks of New York power brokers. A portion of the proceeds, to be matched by the auction house, will go to a National Public Radio station in Connecticut. The buyer was not identified.
