Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
The work Hercules and Omphale (detail), after François Lemoyne from Pictures of Junk by Vik Muniz was auctioned at Phillips in London in November last year. It achieved a price of GBP 22,680.00 (€ 26,280.94), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vik Muniz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Sugar Children: Valentina, The Fastest; Jacynthe Loves Orange Juice; Big James Sweats Buckets; Lil' Calist Can'T Swim; Valicia Bathes In Sunday Clothes; Ten Ten'S Weed Necklace in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 293,000.00 (€ 277,409.58).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 22.680,00 (€ 26.280,94) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 26%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Vik Muniz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Sugar Children: Valentina, The Fastest; Jacynthe Loves Orange Juice; Big James Sweats Buckets; Lil' Calist Can'T Swim; Valicia Bathes In Sunday Clothes; Ten Ten'S Weed Necklace im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 293.000,00 (€ 277.409,58).
