Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Untitled (Man Swimming) by Christopher Orr was sold in the Contemporary Art Online auction at Sothebys in London in July 2018. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 3,500.00 (€ 3,924.27), 17% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Christopher Orr - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Thin Air, which sold at auction in April 2018 for GBP 12,500.00 (€ 14,236.17).
