Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Australian Fairy Penguin In Rock Pool, Shoreham by Clifton Pugh was sold in the Important Australian Art Including Selected International Works auction at Sothebys in Melbourne in August 2007. The auction ended at the price of AUD 12,000.00 (€ 7,175.72), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of AUD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. 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).
