Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Audrey Hepburn, 1949 Vivien Leigh, 1938 by Angus McBean was sold in the Made in Britain auction at Sothebys in London in April 2017. The price achieved of GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,968.79) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Admittedly, works by Angus McBean have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Audrey Hepburn, 1951 in September 2019 with an auction result of GBP 16,250.00 (€ 18,336.20).
