Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Ritual Objects by Avigdor Arikha was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2017. The price achieved of USD 68,750.00 (€ 57,186.82) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Avigdor Arikha - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nude On A Sheet, which sold at auction in December 2017 for USD 162,500.00 (€ 135,168.86).
