In May 2006 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction 20th Century Art, which included the work Blue Fin by Cole Morgan. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 6,600.00 47% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cole Morgan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Stripes, which sold at auction in June 2001 for NLG 29,375.00 (€ 14,119.00).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2006 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion 20th Century Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Blue Fin von Cole Morgan zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 6.600,00 und damit 47% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Cole Morgan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Stripes beobachtet, die im Juni 2001 für NLG 29.375,00 (€ 14.119,00) versteigert wurde.
