Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Lens 35cm (13 3/4in) high (including base); 31cm (12 3/16in) high (excluding base) by Michael Ayrton was sold in the Modern British and Irish Art auction at Bonhams in London in November this year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 3,200.00 (€ 3,708.10). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Michael Ayrton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Arkville Minotaur in July 2013 with an auction result of GBP 205,875.00 (€ 235,248.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 3.200,00 (€ 3.708,10) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Michael Ayrton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Arkville Minotaur im Juli 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 205.875,00 (€ 235.248,07).
