Upper estimate price exceeded by 36 %.
In April last year Bonhams in London held the auction Modern British and Irish Art, which included the work Beach Scene by Alfred Wolmark. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,040.00 (€ 2,432.63), 36% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alfred Wolmark achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Disputation in November 2012 with an auction result of GBP 67,250.00 (€ 82,845.18).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 36 % übertroffen
Im April letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Modern British and Irish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Beach Scene von Alfred Wolmark zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.040,00 (€ 2.432,63) und damit 36% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alfred Wolmark erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Disputation im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 67.250,00 (€ 82.845,18).
