Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
The work Landscape, Black and Red by William Gear was auctioned at Bonhams in London in July 2021. It achieved a price of GBP 6,375.00 (€ 7,476.01), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 28%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Gear - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Summer afternoon, which sold at auction in June 2015 for GBP 20,000.00 (€ 28,199.75).
