Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2021 Sothebys in London held the auction Modern British Art, which included the work Dymchurch by Paul Nash. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 35,280.00 (€ 41,422.04), 18% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Paul Nash have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Bridge, Romney Marsh in October last year with an auction result of GBP 352,800.00 (€ 411,008.09).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im November 2021 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Modern British Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Dymchurch von Paul Nash zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 35.280,00 (€ 41.422,04) und damit 18% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Paul Nash auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Bridge, Romney Marsh im Oktober letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 352.800,00 (€ 411.008,09).
