In November 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Modern British and Irish Art, which included the work End of the Pier by Simeon Stafford. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,530.00 (€ 1,796.36), 28% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Simeon Stafford - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Playing Catch With Ruby, St. Michael'S Mount, which sold at auction in November 2007 for GBP 4,250.00 (€ 5,951.10).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
Im November 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Modern British and Irish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit End of the Pier von Simeon Stafford zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.530,00 (€ 1.796,36) und damit 28% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Simeon Stafford mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Playing Catch With Ruby, St. Michael'S Mount beobachtet, die im November 2007 für GBP 4.250,00 (€ 5.951,10) versteigert wurde.
