Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work The French Riviera from Bordighera by Claude Barry was worth GBP 24,375.00 (€ 29,192.51) to a buyer in December 2011. This price was achieved in the auction 20th Century British Art at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 7,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Claude Barry achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work London and Wartime: Nocturne in June 2015 with an auction result of GBP 230,500.00 (€ 325,002.11).

Die Arbeit The French Riviera from Bordighera von Claude Barry war einem Käufer im Dezember 2011 GBP 24.375,00 (€ 29.192,51) wert. Dieser Preise wurde in der Auktion 20th Century British Art bei Christies in London erzielt und übertraf den zuvor angesetzten oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 7.000,00 um ein Vielfaches. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Claude Barry erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit London and Wartime: Nocturne im Juni 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 230.500,00 (€ 325.002,11).
