A top price for Poul Steffensen

The work Feeding the geese by Poul Steffensen was sold in the NINETEENTH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART auction at Christies in London in March 2002. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 3,055.00 (€ 4,994.12), 39% above the upper estimate. With this result, Feeding the geese is even the most expensive work of art by Poul Steffensen that we have observed at auctions so far.
