Description
Photograph used in “Rolling Stone” on May 12, 1983. Photo size 27.5×20 cm. Frame size 42×32 cm
Artwork auctioned at four times the pre-set estimate
The work A signed colour photograph (magazine page) of the English musician and actor David Bowie (born as David Robert Jones; 1947–2016) by David Bailey was worth DKK 13,500.00 (€ 1,811.01) to a buyer in April this year. This price was achieved in the auction Selected Photographs at Bruun Rasmussen and exceeded the previously set estimate of DKK 3,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Bailey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bob Dylan in February 2008 with an auction result of USD 63,800.00 (€ 42,009.61).
