What does this mean?

The international rock musician and icon, David Bowie (1947 - 2016) was also known to "dabble" in art and his works do sell at auction on occasion. This is a 9" x 12" 1981 personalized pastel drawing on black paper that was given as a birthday gift presentation from David Bowie. Currently, his works sold through auction tend to sell for higher than the original high estimate from the auction catalogue. The estimate is based on actual past recorded auction sales. Retail asking prices could be higher and may vary.
