Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Chocolate Bath by Will Cotton was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2015. Here, the upper estimate of USD 80,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 81,250.00 (€ 75,644.73). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Will Cotton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Taffy Forest, which sold at auction in September 2012 for USD 272,500.00 (€ 211,963.29).
