Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Whippet Fancier, Huddersfield, Uk, 1973 by Chris Killip was auctioned at Sothebys in London in April 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 2,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 6,500.00 (€ 7,912.00). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Chris Killip; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Rocker And Rosie Going Home, Seacoal Beach, Lynemouth, Northumberland, Uk, 1984 sold at auction in April 2014 with the realized price of GBP 10,625.00 (€ 12,933.08).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Whippet Fancier, Huddersfield, Uk, 1973 von Chris Killip im April 2014 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 2.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 6.500,00 (€ 7.912,00) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Chris Killip; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Rocker And Rosie Going Home, Seacoal Beach, Lynemouth, Northumberland, Uk, 1984 im April 2014 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 10.625,00 (€ 12.933,08).
