It achieved a price of USD 6,000.00 (€ 4,738.59), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Zimbel - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Marilyn Monroe, The Seven Year Itch, 1954, which sold at auction in December 2008 for USD 13,750.00 (€ 9,878.58).
