Upper estimate price exceeded by 62 %.
The work Australian Vesta by Bertram Mackennal was auctioned at Sothebys in Melbourne in August 2009. It achieved a price of AUD 16,200.00 (€ 9,524.30), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 62%. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 62 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Australian Vesta von Bertram Mackennal kam im August 2009 bei Sothebys in Melbourne zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von AUD 16.200,00 (€ 9.524,30) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 62%. 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).
