Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

When the work Still life of summer flowers by Dorothea Sharp was auctioned at Bonhams in London in September this year, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 2,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 7,680.00 (€ 7,680.00). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dorothea Sharp achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work In The Orchard, Picking Plums in July 2007 with an auction result of GBP 84,000.00 (€ 124,759.39).

Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Still life of summer flowers von Dorothea Sharp im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 2.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 7.680,00 (€ 7.680,00) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Dorothea Sharp erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit In The Orchard, Picking Plums im Juli 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 84.000,00 (€ 124.759,39).
