Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Untitled from Sandwoman by Ana Mendieta was sold in the Photographs auction at Phillips in London in May last year. It achieved a price of GBP 17,640.00 (€ 20,751.78), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 18%. Admittedly, works by Ana Mendieta have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Untitled (From the Fetish Series) in February 2008 with an auction result of GBP 102,500.00 (€ 134,065.98).
