A top price for John Behan

In May 2013 Sothebys in London held the auction British & Irish Art, which included the work The Blackrock Bull by John Behan. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 23,750.00 (€ 27,767.46), 58% above the upper estimate. This high result makes The Blackrock Bull the most expensive artwork by John Behan that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für John Behan

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 23.750,00 (€ 27.767,46) und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht The Blackrock Bull zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von John Behan, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
