Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
In October 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Important Prints & Multiples: Part II, which included the work Bangalore by Walton Ford. The »bidding war« ended at USD 9,450.00 (€ 8,180.40), 35% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Walton Ford achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bitter Gulfs in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 1,445,000.00 (€ 1,059,384.16).

Im Oktober 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Important Prints & Multiples: Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit Bangalore von Walton Ford zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 9.450,00 (€ 8.180,40) und damit 35% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Walton Ford erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bitter Gulfs im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.445.000,00 (€ 1.059.384,16).
