Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Marilyn Monroe & My African Sensibilities by Wole Lagunju was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2020. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,174.79). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wole Lagunju - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Flower Power Mask III, which sold at auction in November 2021 for GBP 27,720.00 (€ 32,545.89).
