Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Australian the Return Of The Prodigal Son by John Brack was auctioned at Sothebys in Melbourne in August 2008. The price achieved of AUD 780,000.00 (€ 455,323.47) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 700,000.00 – 900,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Brack have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Australian The Old Time in May 2007 with an auction result of AUD 3,360,000.00 (€ 2,066,001.64).
