Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work Mystic Gamelan by Auke Sonnega was worth EUR 63,400.00 to a buyer in September 2010. This price was achieved in the auction Nineteen to Now,Art from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries including Indonesian Art and Topographical Observations at Christies in Amsterdam and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of EUR 12,000.00 many times over.
