In September 2016 Sothebys in London held the auction Made in Britain, which included the work Cottage by Francis Davison. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,375.00 (€ 2,750.55), 32% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francis Davison - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled 9-9 (Fawn, White, Red And Green), which sold at auction in November 2010 for GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,709.36).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 32 % übertroffen
Im September 2016 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Made in Britain durch, in der auch die Arbeit Cottage von Francis Davison zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.375,00 (€ 2.750,55) und damit 32% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Francis Davison mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled 9-9 (Fawn, White, Red And Green) beobachtet, die im November 2010 für GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.709,36) versteigert wurde.
