Upper estimate price exceeded by 65 %.
The work Gold Band by El Anatsui was auctioned at Phillips in London in March this year. It achieved a price of GBP 82,550.00 (€ 93,916.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 65%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by El Anatsui achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Prophet in May this year with an auction result of USD 2,228,000.00 (€ 2,091,233.34).
