Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Benineseuntitled Triptych, Demoiselles De Porto-Novo Series, 2012 by Leonce Raphael Agbodjelou was sold in the Modern & Contemporary African Art auction at Sothebys in London in March 2018. The price achieved of GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,385.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Leonce Raphael Agbodjelou - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled triptych ('Demoiselles de Porto-Novo' series), 2012, which sold at auction in October 2018 for GBP 37,500.00 (€ 42,288.43).
