This artwork by Peter Davies achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in October 2021. In the First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online auction, the work The Hip One Hundred sold for GBP 15,000.00 (€ 17,770.95) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Peter Davies - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Text Painting (Pay Attention), which sold at auction in June 2001 for GBP 25,850.00 (€ 42,941.99).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Peter Davies erzielte im Oktober 2021 bei Christies einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online wurde die Arbeit The Hip One Hundred für GBP 15.000,00 (€ 17.770,95) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 8.000,00.
