Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2012 Christies in London held the auction Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale, which included the work Play Between 6 And 12 by Edward McKnight Kauffer. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 12,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 12,500.00 (€ 15,541.56). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edward McKnight Kauffer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Power, The Nerve Centre Of London'S Underground, which sold at auction in May 2011 for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 31,446.33).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2012 führte Christies in London die Auktion Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Play Between 6 And 12 von Edward McKnight Kauffer zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 12.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 12.500,00 (€ 15.541,56) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Edward McKnight Kauffer mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Power, The Nerve Centre Of London'S Underground beobachtet, die im Mai 2011 für GBP 27.500,00 (€ 31.446,33) versteigert wurde.
