The work D-Day Landing, Omaha Beach, Normandy by Robert Capa was auctioned at Phillips in New York in July 2020. It achieved a price of USD 43,750.00 (€ 37,158.15), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 46%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert Capa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Death of a Loyalist Soldier, which sold at auction in April 2018 for USD 162,500.00 (€ 134,586.72).
