Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2020 Bukowski in Stockholm held the auction Modern Art + Design, which included the work Sitting girl by David Wretling. The price achieved of SEK 19,000.00 (€ 1,816.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as SEK 18,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Wretling - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work "Ungdom" (=Youth), which sold at auction in December 2015 for SEK 50,000.00 (€ 5,447.09).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2020 führte Bukowski in Stockholm die Auktion Modern Art + Design durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sitting girl von David Wretling zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von SEK 19.000,00 (€ 1.816,94) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit SEK 18.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von David Wretling mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit "Ungdom" (=Youth) beobachtet, die im Dezember 2015 für SEK 50.000,00 (€ 5.447,09) versteigert wurde.
