Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Charles Frederick Tunnicliffe achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in July last year. In the Modern British and Irish Art auction, the work The Thief; The Stallion sold for GBP 1,402.50 (€ 1,674.83) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 700.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Frederick Tunnicliffe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Magnani Modena Pigeon (illustrated); Two Starling Pigeons (one illustrated); A Swabian or Starling Pigeon; and A Swabian Pigeon in June 2004 with an auction result of GBP 13,145.00 (€ 19,563.70).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles Frederick Tunnicliffe erzielte im Juli letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern British and Irish Art wurde die Arbeit The Thief; The Stallion für GBP 1.402,50 (€ 1.674,83) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 700,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Frederick Tunnicliffe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Magnani Modena Pigeon (illustrated); Two Starling Pigeons (one illustrated); A Swabian or Starling Pigeon; and A Swabian Pigeon im Juni 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 13.145,00 (€ 19.563,70).
