The work Boran Woman at Marsabit Hospital, March 1968 by Peter Beard was sold in the Photographs auction at Christies in London in November 2007. It achieved a price of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 7,876.46), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 41%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Peter Beard achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Orphaned Cheetah Cubs, Mweiga, near Nyeri, Kenya, March 1968 in October 2017 with an auction result of USD 672,500.00 (€ 577,352.34).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 41 % übertroffen
