Upper estimate price exceeded by 38 %.
In May 2021 Bonhams in Edinburgh held the auction Scottish Art, which included the work 'Child by the Sea' by Alberto Morrocco. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 8,287.50 (€ 9,642.70), 38% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alberto Morrocco achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Grande Natura Morta Napolitana in August 2006 with an auction result of GBP 98,400.00 (€ 146,327.02).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 38 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2021 führte Bonhams in Edinburgh die Auktion Scottish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit 'Child by the Sea' von Alberto Morrocco zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 8.287,50 (€ 9.642,70) und damit 38% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alberto Morrocco erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Grande Natura Morta Napolitana im August 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 98.400,00 (€ 146.327,02).
