Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Bust With Glass Ears by David Altmejd was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Christies in London in March 2018. The auction ended at the price of GBP 30,000.00 (€ 34,156.66), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00.
