Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Five Cats by Desmond Morris was auctioned at Bonhams in London in November 2021. It achieved a price of GBP 1,785.00 (€ 2,095.76), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 19%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Desmond Morris achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Courtship in November 2021 with an auction result of EUR 56,250.00.
