Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price

The work Penguin Pool by James White was worth GBP 13,750.00 (€ 15,995.22) to a buyer in April 2019. This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Art Online at Sothebys in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James White - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Double Glass, which sold at auction in May this year for USD 40,640.00 (€ 38,145.30).
