The work Untitled from "Men In The Cities" Series (Frank) Untitled from "Men In The Cities" Series (JoAnn) by Robert Longo was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Afternoon Sale auction at Christies in New York in November 2008. The »bidding war« ended at USD 104,500.00 (€ 82,322.36), 74% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Longo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Leo) in May 2013 with an auction result of USD 1,575,000.00 (€ 1,212,657.84).
