Upper estimate price exceeded by 70 %.
The work Here We Exemplify by Tom Phillips was sold in the 20th Century British Art auction at Sothebys in London in July 2008. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 11,875.00 (€ 15,087.32), 70% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Tom Phillips; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Berlin Wall with German Grass and Skies II sold at auction in December 2018 with the realized price of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 27,852.22).
