Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
In March this year Bonhams held the auction Modern British and Irish Art, which included the work Spiral by Terry Frost. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 4,080.00 (€ 4,641.79), 63% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Terry Frost achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Walk Along The Quay in July 2008 with an auction result of GBP 457,250.00 (€ 580,941.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 63 % übertroffen
Im März diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Modern British and Irish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Spiral von Terry Frost zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 4.080,00 (€ 4.641,79) und damit 63% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Terry Frost erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Walk Along The Quay im Juli 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 457.250,00 (€ 580.941,27).
