The work Ali Underwater by Flip Schulke was auctioned at Phillips in London in May last year. It achieved a price of GBP 15,120.00 (€ 17,787.24), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Flip Schulke - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Muhammad Ali Boxing Underwater, which sold at auction in November 2008 for GBP 37,250.00 (€ 45,038.05).
