Upper estimate price exceeded by 53 %.
The work Cypresses, Broussa by Roger Fry was sold in the Modern British and Irish Art auction at Bonhams in London in July 2021. It achieved a price of GBP 7,650.00 (€ 8,971.21), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 53%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Roger Fry achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of E.M. Forster in July 2020 with an auction result of GBP 325,062.00 (€ 362,581.90).

Die Arbeit Cypresses, Broussa von Roger Fry wurde im Juli 2021 in der Auktion Modern British and Irish Art bei Bonhams in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 7.650,00 (€ 8.971,21) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 53%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Roger Fry erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of E.M. Forster im Juli 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 325.062,00 (€ 362.581,90).
