Upper estimate price exceeded by 49 %.
In July 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Collections, which included the work 'The Glorious First Of June'; 'The Battle Of St. Vincent' by Harold Wyllie. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 446.25 (€ 523.32), 49% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Harold Wyllie have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Panorama of Portsmouth Harbour With A Battleship Getting-Up Steam And Preparing To Leave The Quayside in May 2006 with an auction result of GBP 1,800.00 (€ 2,627.41).
