This artwork by Pauline Boty achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2017. In the Modern British & Irish Art Evening Sale auction, the work BUM sold for GBP 632,750.00 (€ 718,265.38) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 300,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Pauline Boty; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot With Love to Jean-Paul Belmondo sold at auction in June last year with the realized price of GBP 1,159,500.00 (€ 1,347,009.17).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
