Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Yoko XV by Don Brown was sold in the First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art auction at Christies in New York in December 2017. Here, the upper estimate of USD 18,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 20,000.00 (€ 16,636.17). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Don Brown - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Yoko XVI - 2006, which sold at auction in June this year for EUR 39,360.00.
