Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In June 2018 Christies in London held the auction Modern British Art Day Sale, which included the work Green, Red, Blue, Yellow and Black. 1st Group. Study A by Bridget Riley. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 25,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 31,079.69). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bridget Riley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Diagonal Curve) in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 4,338,500.00 (€ 5,207,615.75).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juni 2018 führte Christies in London die Auktion Modern British Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Green, Red, Blue, Yellow and Black. 1st Group. Study A von Bridget Riley zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 25.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 27.500,00 (€ 31.079,69) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bridget Riley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Diagonal Curve) im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.338.500,00 (€ 5.207.615,75).
