Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portfolio of 8 by Tom Baril was auctioned at Phillips in New York in October 2010. The price achieved of USD 6,875.00 (€ 4,948.18) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Tom Baril - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portfolio of 8, 1993-2001, which sold at auction in February 2008 for USD 27,400.00 (€ 18,041.75).
