Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Wren's Nest; Field Day; Stepney Green; Cob Study; Mule; Cup and Quill; and Jolly Dog by Barry Flanagan was auctioned at Phillips in London in September last year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 315.00 (€ 358.50). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Barry Flanagan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nijinski Hare in March 2019 with an auction result of GBP 1,451,250.00 (€ 1,684,421.98).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The Wren's Nest; Field Day; Stepney Green; Cob Study; Mule; Cup and Quill; and Jolly Dog von Barry Flanagan im September letzten Jahres bei Phillips in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 315,00 (€ 358,50) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Barry Flanagan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nijinski Hare im März 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.451.250,00 (€ 1.684.421,98).
