Upper estimate price exceeded by 56 %.
The work Australian Peace by Bertram Mackennal was sold in the Important Australian Art auction at Sothebys in Melbourne in August 2009. It achieved a price of AUD 15,600.00 (€ 9,171.55), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 56%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bertram Mackennal achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Circe, c.1902-04 in November this year with an auction result of AUD 196,800.00 (€ 119,328.49).

Die Arbeit Australian Peace von Bertram Mackennal wurde im August 2009 in der Auktion Important Australian Art bei Sothebys in Melbourne versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von AUD 15.600,00 (€ 9.171,55) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 56%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bertram Mackennal erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Circe, c.1902-04 im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 196.800,00 (€ 119.328,49).
