Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Greek the Sponge Gatherers by Diamantis Diamandopoulos was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2010. The price achieved of GBP 145,250.00 (€ 173,573.53) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Diamantis Diamandopoulos - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Greek Seated Greek Sergeant, which sold at auction in April 2008 for GBP 276,500.00 (€ 352,498.43).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Greek the Sponge Gatherers von Diamantis Diamandopoulos kam im November 2010 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 145.250,00 (€ 173.573,53) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 120.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Diamantis Diamandopoulos mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Greek Seated Greek Sergeant beobachtet, die im April 2008 für GBP 276.500,00 (€ 352.498,43) versteigert wurde.
