Upper estimate price exceeded by 37 %.
The work Marcy by Thomas Downing was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2020. It achieved a price of USD 16,380.00 (€ 14,063.71), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 37%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Downing achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Blue Tender in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 200,000.00 (€ 179,388.29).
