A top price for Lawrence Mynott
When the work The boy from Charf by Lawrence Mynott was auctioned at Sothebys in Paris in March 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 1,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at EUR 11,340.00. This high result makes The boy from Charf the most expensive artwork by Lawrence Mynott that we have observed at auctions so far.
