Auction result well in line with expectations

The work ‘Carry On!’ (‘Superman: “Ah Yes, Mr Citizen, War Is A Rough Road, But – Carry On!”’) by Percy Hutton Fearon was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2018. It changed hands for a price of GBP 688.00 (€ 783.33) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 500.00 – 700.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Percy Hutton Fearon - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work ‘Rolling Paper Skills Much More Fun Than Moulding Budgets’, which sold at auction in March 2018 for GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,277.11).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit ‘Carry On!’ (‘Superman: “Ah Yes, Mr Citizen, War Is A Rough Road, But – Carry On!”’) von Percy Hutton Fearon kam im März 2018 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 688,00 (€ 783,33) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 500,00 – 700,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Percy Hutton Fearon mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit ‘Rolling Paper Skills Much More Fun Than Moulding Budgets’ beobachtet, die im März 2018 für GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.277,11) versteigert wurde.
