Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Marilyn Monroe, 1962 by George Barris was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2007. The price achieved of USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,318.66) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Barris - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Marilyn Monroe Champagne Sipping on the Beach, Santa Monica Beach., which sold at auction in July 2021 for EUR 4,250.00.
