Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Bernard Cohen achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2017. In the Modern/British Art Online auction, the work March 1962 sold for GBP 3,500.00 (€ 3,973.02) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00.
