Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Tetrarch by Christopher Bucklow was auctioned at Phillips in London in May 2018, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,270.24). Admittedly, works by Christopher Bucklow have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Guest, 5:57pm, 12 May 1998 in October 2000 with an auction result of USD 18,800.00 (€ 22,154.14).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Tetrarch von Christopher Bucklow im Mai 2018 bei Phillips in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.270,24) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Christopher Bucklow auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Guest, 5:57pm, 12 May 1998 im Oktober 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 18.800,00 (€ 22.154,14).
