Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Cornish Harbour by Bryan Wynter was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 18,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 60,000.00 (€ 70,794.10). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bryan Wynter - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work In The Stream'S Path, which sold at auction in November 2016 for GBP 131,000.00 (€ 154,567.12).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Cornish Harbour von Bryan Wynter im November 2016 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 18.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 60.000,00 (€ 70.794,10) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Bryan Wynter mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit In The Stream'S Path beobachtet, die im November 2016 für GBP 131.000,00 (€ 154.567,12) versteigert wurde.
