A top price for Roy Perry - as previously expected
In October 2003 Christies in London held the auction At Home-British and Continental Pictures and Works on Paper, which included the work The Upper Pool from Tower Bridge by Roy Perry. The price achieved of GBP 2,585.00 (€ 3,775.63) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Upper Pool from Tower Bridge is the most expensive artwork by Roy Perry that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Oktober 2003 führte Christies in London die Auktion At Home-British and Continental Pictures and Works on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Upper Pool from Tower Bridge von Roy Perry zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.585,00 (€ 3.775,63) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Upper Pool from Tower Bridge das teuerste Kunstwerk von Roy Perry, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
