Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Red Painting 91.8 x 96.2 cm. (36 1/8 x 37 7/8 in.) by Adrian Heath was worth GBP 75,900.00 (€ 87,950.77) to a buyer in November last year. This price was achieved in the auction Modern British and Irish Art at Bonhams in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adrian Heath - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Painting With Orange And Purple, which sold at auction in October last year for GBP 163,800.00 (€ 190,825.19).
