A top price for William Ernest Maurice Fletcher - as previously expected
The work Banksia Integrifolia by William Ernest Maurice Fletcher was auctioned at Christies in Melbourne in April 2006. The price achieved of AUD 3,107.00 (€ 1,868.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Banksia Integrifolia is the most expensive artwork by William Ernest Maurice Fletcher that we have observed at auctions so far.
