Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Sand Bar by Peter Lanyon was sold in the Modern British and Irish Art Evening Sale auction at Christies in London in March this year. The price achieved of GBP 441,000.00 (€ 501,722.68) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 350,000.00 – 550,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Peter Lanyon - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Orpheus, which sold at auction in November 2018 for GBP 1,268,750.00 (€ 1,431,111.45).
