Upper estimate price exceeded by 31 %.
The work A female Centaur by Aubrey Vincent Beardsley was sold in the British Art on Paper including Original Book Illustrations auction at Christies in London in December 2002. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,350.00 (€ 3,607.37), 31% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Aubrey Vincent Beardsley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Design For The Front And First Page Of The Savoy Or Woman Fondling Grapes in November 2017 with an auction result of EUR 200,000.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 31 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit A female Centaur von Aubrey Vincent Beardsley wurde im Dezember 2002 in der Auktion British Art on Paper including Original Book Illustrations bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.350,00 (€ 3.607,37) und damit 31% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Aubrey Vincent Beardsley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Design For The Front And First Page Of The Savoy Or Woman Fondling Grapes im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 200.000,00.
