Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'The Symmetry of Diplomacy.'' The Stanhope - New York by Ger van Elk was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art auction at Christies in Amsterdam in April 2017. The price achieved of EUR 4,000.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Ger van Elk have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work without title in November 2011 with an auction result of EUR 20,000.00.
