Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Elk by Eli Harvey was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in April last year. It achieved a price of USD 1,785.00 (€ 1,694.03), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 19%. Admittedly, works by Eli Harvey have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Study for 'Bruno' the Brown University Bear (Standing Bear) in February 2019 with an auction result of USD 13,750.00 (€ 12,083.66).
