A top price for Richard Dupont - as previously expected
The work Them by Richard Dupont was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2011. The auction ended at the price of USD 35,000.00 (€ 26,016.50), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Them is the most expensive artwork by Richard Dupont that we have observed at auctions so far.
