This artwork by Andy Goldsworthy achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2010. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Arch and tree sold for GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,493.75) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 700.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Andy Goldsworthy achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work (i) British Museum (Stonework) (ii) Stonework in February 2005 with an auction result of GBP 28,800.00 (€ 41,763.69).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 79 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Andy Goldsworthy erzielte im November 2010 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Arch and tree für GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.493,75) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 700,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Andy Goldsworthy erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit (i) British Museum (Stonework) (ii) Stonework im Februar 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 28.800,00 (€ 41.763,69).
