Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Armenian On The Seashore by Charles Atamian was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2009, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 12,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 39,650.00 (€ 46,527.95). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Charles Atamian; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Armenian looking Out To Sea sold at auction in June 2010 with the realized price of GBP 58,850.00 (€ 71,567.08).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Armenian On The Seashore von Charles Atamian im Juni 2009 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 12.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 39.650,00 (€ 46.527,95) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Charles Atamian; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Armenian looking Out To Sea im Juni 2010 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 58.850,00 (€ 71.567,08).
