Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A-Frame, March 17 by Alfred Wertheimer was sold in the Music auction at Phillips in London in November 2009. The price achieved of GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,735.93) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Admittedly, works by Alfred Wertheimer have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Elvis Presley. Twenty One Studies, 1956 in November 2007 with an auction result of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 11,377.10).
