In August 2005 Christies in Melbourne held the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL & CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS, which included the work Yellow Maiden Ridge by David Rankin. The »bidding war« ended at AUD 3,107.00 (€ 1,893.43), 24% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by David Rankin have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Ridge-Mungo in August 2003 with an auction result of AUD 23,500.00 (€ 13,882.67).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im August 2005 führte Christies in Melbourne die Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL & CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Yellow Maiden Ridge von David Rankin zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von AUD 3.107,00 (€ 1.893,43) und damit 24% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von David Rankin auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Ridge-Mungo im August 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 23.500,00 (€ 13.882,67).
