Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of St. John the Evangelist 61 cm. (24 in.) high by Carolyn Mulholland was auctioned at Bonhams in Dublin in November this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of EUR 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, the actual price achieved of EUR 2,048.00 could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Carolyn Mulholland have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Figures Passing in October 2007 with an auction result of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 11,668.03).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of St. John the Evangelist 61 cm. (24 in.) high von Carolyn Mulholland kam im November diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Dublin zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von EUR 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von EUR 2.048,00 konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Carolyn Mulholland auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Figures Passing im Oktober 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 11.668,03).
