This artwork by Charles Frederick Goldie achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2016. In the Topographical Pictures auction, the work Memories. Wiripine Ninia, a Ngatiawa Chieftainess sold for GBP 131,000.00 (€ 153,160.25) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Frederick Goldie - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Reverie, Ena Te Papatahi, A Ngapuhi Chieftainess (Ina Te Papatahi, Nga Puhi), which sold at auction in September 2015 for GBP 386,500.00 (€ 523,412.83).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles Frederick Goldie erzielte im Dezember 2016 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Topographical Pictures wurde die Arbeit Memories. Wiripine Ninia, a Ngatiawa Chieftainess für GBP 131.000,00 (€ 153.160,25) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 60.000,00.
