Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Armstrong Suiting Up On Morning Of Apollo 11 Launch, July 16, 1969   by Paul Calle was sold in the Space Exploration auction at Sothebys in New York in November 2018. The price achieved of USD 6,875.00 (€ 6,071.71) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 6,000.00 – 9,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Paul Calle - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Carrying Place, which sold at auction in November 2018 for USD 16,250.00 (€ 14,351.32).
