Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Cedar by Alfred Basbous was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2020. It changed hands for a price of GBP 18,750.00 (€ 20,931.33) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alfred Basbous - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sensual, which sold at auction in November this year for GBP 50,400.00 (€ 58,402.64).
