This artwork by Jessie Makinson achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May this year. In the 21st Century Art Day Sale auction, the work Downy Ruff sold for HKD 226,800.00 (€ 27,184.49) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 120,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jessie Makinson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Fluffy Whistle, which sold at auction in March this year for GBP 57,150.00 (€ 65,019.16).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 89 % übertroffen
