Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2010 Christies in New York held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work Happy Intellectual by Alan Turner. Here, the upper estimate of USD 1,200.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 1,375.00 (€ 1,033.68). Admittedly, works by Alan Turner have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work In a Blue Habit in September 2017 with an auction result of USD 5,250.00 (€ 4,444.26).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2010 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit Happy Intellectual von Alan Turner zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 1.200,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 1.375,00 (€ 1.033,68) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alan Turner auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit In a Blue Habit im September 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.250,00 (€ 4.444,26).
