Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2019 Sothebys in London held the auction Modern and Contemporary African Art, which included the work Untitled, Desmoiselles De Porto-Novo Series, 2012 by Leonce Raphael Agbodjelou. It changed hands for a price of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 6,524.60) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by Leonce Raphael Agbodjelou have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Untitled triptych ('Demoiselles de Porto-Novo' series), 2012 in October 2018 with an auction result of GBP 37,500.00 (€ 42,288.43).

Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Leonce Raphael Agbodjelou auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Untitled triptych ('Demoiselles de Porto-Novo' series), 2012 im Oktober 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 37.500,00 (€ 42.288,43).
