Auction result well in line with expectations

In December 2019 Sothebys in London held the auction The Hoarder Sale, which included the work What Is It That There Is Something And Nothing by John Isaacs. It changed hands for a price of GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,250.18) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00.
