A top price for Virgile Ittah - as previously expected

The work Dreams are guilty, absolute and silent by fire by Virgile Ittah was sold in the Handpicked: 50 works selected by the Saatchi Collection - Online Only auction at Christies in London in June 2018. The result of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 5,650.85) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Dreams are guilty, absolute and silent by fire is the most expensive artwork by Virgile Ittah that we have observed at auctions so far.
