It achieved a price of USD 41,825.00 (€ 39,890.32), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 39%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gilbert Gaul - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Song Of Victory, which sold at auction in May 2010 for USD 146,500.00 (€ 118,441.26).
