Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Coastal scene from Särö, on the west coast of Sweden by Hugo Birger was auctioned at Bukowski in Stockholm in December 2019. The result of SEK 50,000.00 (€ 4,765.30) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of SEK 50,000.00 – 60,000.00. Admittedly, works by Hugo Birger have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work "Badbrygga vid stranden av Engelska kanalen" (Jetty on the beach of the English Channel) in December 2013 with an auction result of SEK 400,000.00 (€ 45,170.19).
