The work Publicon--Station Iii (Gemini 816) by Robert Rauschenberg was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Art auction at Christies in Amsterdam in April 2016. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 10,625.00 52% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Rauschenberg achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Buffalo Ii in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 88,805,000.00 (€ 79,652,883.67).
