Upper estimate price exceeded by 88%
This artwork by Laura Knight achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2012. In the Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale auction, the work Summer'S Joy sold for GBP 3,750 (€ 4,662) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 2,000. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Laura Knight achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Wind And Sun in July 2009 with an auction result of GBP 914,850 (€ 1,038,081).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 88% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Laura Knight erzielte im Oktober 2012 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale wurde die Arbeit Summer'S Joy für GBP 3.750 (€ 4.662) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 2.000. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Laura Knight erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Wind And Sun im Juli 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 914.850 (€ 1.038.081).
