Upper estimate price exceeded by 39 %.
The work Monumental Head And Shoulders; Winston Churchill Monument, Parliament Square by Ivor Roberts-Jones was sold in the TWENTIETH CENTURY BRITISH ART auction at Christies in London in November 2005. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 6,960.00 (€ 10,225.12), 39% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ivor Roberts-Jones achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Maquette for the Winston Churchill Monument in Parliament Square in November 2010 with an auction result of GBP 145,250.00 (€ 173,573.53).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 39 % übertroffen
