A top price for Robert Melee - as previously expected
The work Not Sure by Robert Melee was auctioned at Phillips in New York in November 2009. The price achieved of USD 9,375.00 (€ 6,252.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Not Sure is the most expensive artwork by Robert Melee that we have observed at auctions so far.
