Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work A romantic setting, but the hippies are fighting by Albert Willem was worth GBP 69,300.00 (€ 80,653.27) to a buyer in June this year. This price was achieved in the auction Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Albert Willem - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work All In All Not Bad For His First Attempt, which sold at auction in June this year for GBP 228,600.00 (€ 266,051.04).
