Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

This work without title by Os Gêmeos was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art Featuring Property from an Important Private European Collection Afternoon Session auction at Christies in New York in May 2011. Here, the upper estimate of USD 70,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 74,500.00 (€ 51,822.48). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Os Gêmeos - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Amigo, which sold at auction in November 2015 for USD 162,500.00 (€ 153,853.44).
