Upper estimate price exceeded by 60 %.
In September 2017 Christies in London held the auction Audrey Hepburn: The Personal Collection, which included the work Audrey Hepburn on the set of the 1959 MGM production Green Mansions, Hollywood, 1958 by Bob Willoughby. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,538.05), 60% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Bob Willoughby; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Audrey Hepburn and Assam on the set of the 1964 Warner Bros. production My Fair Lady, Burbank, 1963 sold at auction in September 2017 with the realized price of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,799.78).

Im September 2017 führte Christies in London die Auktion Audrey Hepburn: The Personal Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Audrey Hepburn on the set of the 1959 MGM production Green Mansions, Hollywood, 1958 von Bob Willoughby zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.538,05) und damit 60% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Bob Willoughby; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Audrey Hepburn and Assam on the set of the 1964 Warner Bros. production My Fair Lady, Burbank, 1963 im September 2017 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.799,78).
