Upper estimate price exceeded by 52 %.
In December 2019 Phillips in London held the auction New Now, which included this untitled work by Bill Henson. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 10,625.00 (€ 12,557.51), 52% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bill Henson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled 1987-88, which sold at auction in May 2005 for AUD 45,410.00 (€ 27,913.78).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 52 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2019 führte Phillips in London die Auktion New Now durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Bill Henson zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 10.625,00 (€ 12.557,51) und damit 52% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Bill Henson mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled 1987-88 beobachtet, die im Mai 2005 für AUD 45.410,00 (€ 27.913,78) versteigert wurde.
