Upper estimate price exceeded by 79 %.
This artwork by Paul Wonner achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in September this year. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art X Made in California Part II Online auction, the work View from I's Christopher Isherwood's, Santa Monica, circa 1965 sold for USD 8,960.00 (€ 8,465.61) - well above the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Paul Wonner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Still Life With Cup in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 324,000.00 (€ 240,838.47).
