Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Mostly Smiling, No. 1 by Angus Fairhurst was worth GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,636.01) to a buyer in February 2020. This price was achieved in the auction First Open: Post-War and Contemporary Art Online at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Angus Fairhurst achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Couple of Differences Between Thinking and Feeling II in March 2019 with an auction result of GBP 118,750.00 (€ 137,829.53).

Die Arbeit Mostly Smiling, No. 1 von Angus Fairhurst war einem Käufer im Februar 2020 GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.636,01) wert. Dieser Preise wurde in der Auktion First Open: Post-War and Contemporary Art Online bei Christies in London erzielt und übertraf den zuvor angesetzten oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.200,00 um ein Vielfaches. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Angus Fairhurst erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Couple of Differences Between Thinking and Feeling II im März 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 118.750,00 (€ 137.829,53).
