Auction result well in line with expectations

The work AUG. 31, 1999 by On Kawara was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2018. The price achieved of GBP 572,750.00 (€ 645,885.30) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 450,000.00 – 650,000.00.
