This artwork by David Rankin achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Melbourne in May 2005. In the PAINTINGS FROM THE JOSEPH BROWN COLLECTION auction, the work Three Fish Beach sold for AUD 8,962.50 (€ 5,509.30) - well above the upper estimate of AUD 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Rankin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ridge-Mungo, which sold at auction in August 2003 for AUD 23,500.00 (€ 13,882.67).
