Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Andrew Sibley could be acquired at Christies in London in September 2010 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Modern and Contemporary Australian Art auction, the work Believe Me I'm Earthed! (Meet the Family series); and Good Mates changed hands for GBP 500.00 (€ 578.30) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Andrew Sibley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Musicians in Love - Mad Lovers Series in May 2001 with an auction result of AUD 25,850.00 (€ 15,494.71).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Andrew Sibley konnte im September 2010 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Australian Art wechselte die Arbeit Believe Me I'm Earthed! (Meet the Family series); and Good Mates für GBP 500,00 (€ 578,30) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Andrew Sibley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Musicians in Love - Mad Lovers Series im Mai 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 25.850,00 (€ 15.494,71).
