A top price for Eve Arnold - as previously expected
The work Marilyn, 1955-1960 by Eve Arnold was sold in the Icons of Glamour and Style: The Constantiner Collection auction at Christies in New York in December 2008. The price achieved of USD 31,250.00 (€ 22,451.33) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Marilyn, 1955-1960 is the most expensive artwork by Eve Arnold that we have observed at auctions so far.
