Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Dutch eel boats off Billingsgate; and Moorings off Limehouse by Roy Perry was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2003. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 800.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 881.25 (€ 1,287.15). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Roy Perry - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Upper Pool from Tower Bridge, which sold at auction in October 2003 for GBP 2,585.00 (€ 3,775.63).
