Upper estimate price exceeded by 52 %.
In August 2011 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work Viewing the auction; and Close inspection by Tom Coates. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,062.50 (€ 1,199.90), 52% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Tom Coates have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Street Scene, Florence in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 3,360.00 (€ 4,986.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 52 % übertroffen
Im August 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit Viewing the auction; and Close inspection von Tom Coates zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.062,50 (€ 1.199,90) und damit 52% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Tom Coates auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Street Scene, Florence im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.360,00 (€ 4.986,07).
