Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Second Half by Elwyn Augustus Lynn was auctioned at Christies in Melbourne in May 2005. Here, the upper estimate of AUD 5,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for AUD 5,019.00 (€ 3,085.21). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Elwyn Augustus Lynn - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Thirty-Five, which sold at auction in August 2001 for AUD 12,925.00 (€ 7,503.33).
