The work Christy Turlington, British Vogue, Los Angeles, CA, 1994, from the Self-Portrait series by Kurt Markus was sold in the Photographs From The Estate of Thomas T. Solley auction at Christies in New York in February 2007. It achieved a price of USD 5,040.00 (€ 3,809.52), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 68%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Kurt Markus; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Ranch, Paisley, Oregon, 1981 sold at auction in May last year with the realized price of USD 6,930.00 (€ 6,457.93).
