Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Andrew Grassie could be acquired at Sothebys in London in May last year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Discoveries auction, the work The Geffen changed hands for GBP 2,016.00 (€ 2,371.63) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Andrew Grassie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Courtauld Institute in May 2008 with an auction result of USD 67,000.00 (€ 43,059.13).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Andrew Grassie konnte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Discoveries wechselte die Arbeit The Geffen für GBP 2.016,00 (€ 2.371,63) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Andrew Grassie erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Courtauld Institute im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 67.000,00 (€ 43.059,13).
