Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
The work Miss Joanna Yorke; and Miss Lisa Yorke by Louis le Brocquy was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2011. It achieved a price of GBP 16,250.00 (€ 18,581.92), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louis le Brocquy achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Travelling Woman With Newspaper in September 2020 with an auction result of GBP 741,000.00 (€ 817,072.96).
