A top price for Phyllis Galembo - as previously expected
The work Egungun, Bohican, Benin, 2006 by Phyllis Galembo was auctioned at Christies in London in October this year. The price achieved of USD 3,780.00 (€ 3,576.84) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Egungun, Bohican, Benin, 2006 is the most expensive artwork by Phyllis Galembo that we have observed at auctions so far.
