Description

Elizabeth Fritsch (b. 1940)
Double Doors
flattened stoneware vase
11¼ in. (28.5 cm.) high
Conceived in 1989.

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Elizabeth Fritsch achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in June 2006. In the 20th Century British Art auction, the work Double Doors sold for GBP 12,000.00 (€ 17,363.80) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Elizabeth Fritsch; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Quantum Pocket III sold at auction in October last year with the realized price of GBP 15,120.00 (€ 17,614.63).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Elizabeth Fritsch erzielte im Juni 2006 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 20th Century British Art wurde die Arbeit Double Doors für GBP 12.000,00 (€ 17.363,80) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Elizabeth Fritsch; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Quantum Pocket III im Oktober letzten Jahres mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 15.120,00 (€ 17.614,63).
