A top price for Edward Wolfe - as previously expected
The work Portrait of Curtis Thomas by Edward Wolfe was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2006. The price achieved of GBP 9,600.00 (€ 14,053.27) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of Curtis Thomas is the most expensive artwork by Edward Wolfe that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Portrait of Curtis Thomas von Edward Wolfe kam im Juli 2006 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 9.600,00 (€ 14.053,27) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Portrait of Curtis Thomas das teuerste Kunstwerk von Edward Wolfe, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
