A top price for Tony Ray-Jones - as previously expected
The work Ramsgate, 1967 by Tony Ray-Jones was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2008. The result of GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,836.30) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Ramsgate, 1967 is the most expensive artwork by Tony Ray-Jones that we have observed at auctions so far.
