Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Carved Head (Base) by Thomas Houseago was sold in the Contemporary Art Day Auction auction at Sothebys in London in March 2021. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 30,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 31,500.00 (€ 37,004.39).
