Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Liberty is sweet by Charles Spencelayh was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in September this year. The price achieved of GBP 15,360.00 (€ 15,360.00) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Spencelayh achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Time On His Hands in June 2006 with an auction result of GBP 265,600.00 (€ 384,318.77).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Liberty is sweet von Charles Spencelayh kam im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 15.360,00 (€ 15.360,00) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Spencelayh erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Time On His Hands im Juni 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 265.600,00 (€ 384.318,77).
