Upper estimate price exceeded by 32 %.
The work Australian Ls 29 Inscribed And Dated To Rcc From Rk. 1969 (Lower Right); Bears Title On Reverse Ink And Watercolour On Paper 9.5 By 12Cm Ls 46 Signed R.K. (Lower Left) And Dated 2/72 (Lower Right); Inscribed To Joan Crebbin,/ With Best Wishes For 1973/ Fr by Robert Klippel was sold in the Important Australian Art auction at Sothebys in Melbourne in November 2009. It achieved a price of AUD 2,640.00 (€ 1,609.81), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 32%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Klippel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Opus 361 (Eighteen Miniature Constructions) in March 2006 with an auction result of AUD 507,800.00 (€ 299,727.08).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 32 % übertroffen
