Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Australian crucifixtion On The Salt Plains Iii by Clifton Pugh was sold in the Important Australian Art auction at Sothebys in Melbourne in August 2008. The price achieved of AUD 13,200.00 (€ 7,705.47) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 12,000.00 – 16,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Clifton Pugh - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Australian A Feral Cat, which sold at auction in April 2008 for AUD 42,000.00 (€ 25,410.97).
