Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2009 Sothebys in London held the auction British and Continental Pictures & 20th Century British Art, which included the work Head Of A Woman by Dora Gordine. The price achieved of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,043.81) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dora Gordine - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Crowning Glory, which sold at auction in December 2007 for GBP 6,000.00 (€ 8,152.98).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2009 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion British and Continental Pictures & 20th Century British Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Head Of A Woman von Dora Gordine zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.043,81) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Dora Gordine mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Crowning Glory beobachtet, die im Dezember 2007 für GBP 6.000,00 (€ 8.152,98) versteigert wurde.
