The work Two Standing Pears by Eliot Hodgkin was sold in the Modern British and Irish Art auction at Bonhams in London in June 2021. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 19,000.00 (€ 22,139.94), 58% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Eliot Hodgkin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Violets II, which sold at auction in September 2000 for GBP 51,700.00 (€ 86,509.89).
