Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Botanic Garden by Omar Rayo was worth USD 75,000.00 (€ 64,267.35) to a buyer in May 2018. This price was achieved in the auction The Collection of Peggy and David Rockefeller: Fine Art, Day Sale at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 22,000.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Omar Rayo; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Ola-Zen I sold at auction in November 2017 with the realized price of USD 125,000.00 (€ 105,059.67).
