In July last year Sothebys in New York held the auction Modern Discoveries, which included the work Golden Sea Garden by Arthur Bowen Davies. The »bidding war« ended at USD 11,340.00 (€ 11,115.47), 62% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Arthur Bowen Davies have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Heart's Hansel in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 67,000.00 (€ 45,615.47).

Im Juli letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Modern Discoveries durch, in der auch die Arbeit Golden Sea Garden von Arthur Bowen Davies zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 11.340,00 (€ 11.115,47) und damit 62% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Arthur Bowen Davies auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Heart's Hansel im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 67.000,00 (€ 45.615,47).
