Artwork auctioned at 12 times the upper estimate price
The work Landscape No. 230 by John Virtue was worth GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,799.02) to a buyer in November 2016. This price was achieved in the auction Day Auction at Sothebys in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 800.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Virtue - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape No. 87, which sold at auction in November 2016 for GBP 40,000.00 (€ 47,196.07).
