Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Two Figures Seated by Percy Wyndham Lewis was sold in the Modern & Post-War British Art auction at Sothebys in London in November 2015. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 15,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 16,250.00 (€ 23,145.71). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Percy Wyndham Lewis - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Red portrait, which sold at auction in June 2000 for GBP 39,950.00 (€ 63,325.67).

Die Arbeit Two Figures Seated von Percy Wyndham Lewis wurde im November 2015 in der Auktion Modern & Post-War British Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert.

Für andere Arbeiten von Percy Wyndham Lewis mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Red portrait beobachtet, die im Juni 2000 für GBP 39.950,00 (€ 63.325,67) versteigert wurde.
