This artwork by Lynton Wells achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in an online auction in February this year. In the The Eye That Shapes: Further Selections from the Peter C. Bunnell Collection auction, the work Six Wizards (Italian Bellflowers) sold for USD 4,032.00 (€ 3,803.06) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,500.00.
