This artwork by Briton Rivière achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in March last year. In the 19th Century and British Impressionist Art auction, the work The King and his Satellites sold for GBP 10,837.50 (€ 12,849.08) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Briton Rivière achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Requiescat in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 111,150.00 (€ 162,275.49).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 81 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Briton Rivière erzielte im März letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 19th Century and British Impressionist Art wurde die Arbeit The King and his Satellites für GBP 10.837,50 (€ 12.849,08) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Briton Rivière erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Requiescat im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 111.150,00 (€ 162.275,49).
