Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The History of a Day is the History of a Life by Guy de Cointet was auctioned at Phillips in New York in September last year. The price achieved of USD 10,710.00 (€ 10,947.56) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 7,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Guy de Cointet - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Note from Ethiopia, which sold at auction in September last year for USD 32,760.00 (€ 33,486.66).
