A top price for Luis Martínez-Pedro - as previously expected
In November 2016 Sothebys in New York held the auction Latin America: Modern Art | Latin America: Contemporary Art, which included the work Composition No. 16 by Luis Martínez-Pedro. It changed hands for a price of USD 43,750.00 (€ 41,359.43) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 35,000.00 – 45,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Composition No. 16 is the most expensive artwork by Luis Martínez-Pedro that we have observed at auctions so far.
