Auction result well in line with expectations
The work John Lennon and Paul McCartney by David Bailey was sold in the Art for Maggie's: Everyone's Home of Cancer Care auction at Christies in London in July 2020. The price achieved of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 16,731.36) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Bailey - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bob Dylan, which sold at auction in February 2008 for USD 63,800.00 (€ 42,009.61).
