Under auctioneer Arnaud Oliveux's hammer, Shepard Fairey's work Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité sold for €232,000 (fees included) — double its estimate. The painting of Marianne, the personification of the French Republic, is now famous as the "little sister" of the painting hanging in President Emmanuel Macron's office.
Another of the evening's records was set by American artist José Parla's work Brothers Back to Back (2006), which tripled its estimate to scoop €155,800.
