Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Girl Waking by Ralph Brown was sold in the Modern British and Irish Art Day Sale auction at Christies in London in December 2012. The price achieved of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 15,415.97) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ralph Brown - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Girl Sitting On A Wall, which sold at auction in November 2005 for GBP 38,400.00 (€ 56,414.45).
