Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Heartshaped Girl by Antony Micallef was sold in the Contemporary Curated auction at Sothebys in London in November 2017. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,223.08), 16% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Antony Micallef - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hobo Angel (Burger King), which sold at auction in December 2007 for GBP 26,900.00 (€ 36,552.54).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
