A top price for Russell Baker

In December 2009 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work Northern sky by Russell Baker. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,269.04), 41% above the upper estimate. With this result, Northern sky is even the most expensive work of art by Russell Baker that we have observed at auctions so far.
