Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Reclining male nude study by Roger Fry was auctioned at Bonhams in March this year. It achieved a price of GBP 701.25 (€ 797.81), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 17%. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Reclining male nude study von Roger Fry kam im März diesen Jahres bei Bonhams zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 701,25 (€ 797,81) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 17%. 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).
