A top price for Louis Raemaekers - as previously expected
The work Father, Is It Still A Long Way To The Beresina? by Louis Raemaekers was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2018. The price achieved of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,138.56) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Father, Is It Still A Long Way To The Beresina? is the most expensive artwork by Louis Raemaekers that we have observed at auctions so far.
