Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Korongo Wrestlers, Kordofan, Southern Sudan by George Rodger was sold in the Photographs auction at Phillips in London in October 2009. The result of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,116.84) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,000.00 – 2,000.00. Admittedly, works by George Rodger have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Champion of a Korongo Nuba Wrestling Match is Carried Shoulder High, Kordofan, Southern Sudan in May 2010 with an auction result of USD 8,750.00 (€ 7,074.14).
