Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,175.00 (€ 1,895.98), 18% above the upper estimate. Other works by Robert Houston have achieved even higher prices, we observed the highest auction result so far of GBP 2,160.00 (€ 3,185.35) in October 2005 for the work Sunrise on the beach.
