This artwork by David Tremlett achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in February 2012. In the A Way of Thinking, Works From An Important Private Collection auction, the work The Smell of Yesterday sold for GBP 8,750.00 (€ 10,447.73) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Tremlett - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work British Drawing 10 / Africa, which sold at auction in March 2010 for EUR 24,750.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

In der Auktion A Way of Thinking, Works From An Important Private Collection wurde die Arbeit The Smell of Yesterday für GBP 8.750,00 (€ 10.447,73) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00.
