Upper estimate price exceeded by 29 %.
In November 2011 Sothebys in Toronto held the auction Important Canadian Art, which included the work Northern Hills by Arthur Lismer. The »bidding war« ended at CAD 77,250.00 (€ 56,296.66), 29% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Arthur Lismer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bon Echo Rock in June 2010 with an auction result of CAD 778,750.00 (€ 597,352.13).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 29 % übertroffen
Im November 2011 führte Sothebys in Toronto die Auktion Important Canadian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Northern Hills von Arthur Lismer zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von CAD 77.250,00 (€ 56.296,66) und damit 29% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Arthur Lismer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bon Echo Rock im Juni 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von CAD 778.750,00 (€ 597.352,13).
