Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Crab by Bernard Meadows was sold in the Modern & Post War British Art Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in June 2021. The price achieved of GBP 18,900.00 (€ 22,023.41) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00.
