Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2010 Sothebys in Toronto held the auction Important Canadian Art, which included the work Two Klee Wyck Painted Ceramic Sculptures; Thunderbird And Killer Whale by Emily Carr. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of CAD 18,000.00 – 24,000.00, the actual price achieved of CAD 19,200.00 (€ 14,727.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Emily Carr achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Skedans in November 2019 with an auction result of USD 3,260,000.00 (€ 2,958,526.18).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2010 führte Sothebys in Toronto die Auktion Important Canadian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Two Klee Wyck Painted Ceramic Sculptures; Thunderbird And Killer Whale von Emily Carr zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von CAD 18.000,00 – 24.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von CAD 19.200,00 (€ 14.727,65) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Emily Carr erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Skedans im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.260.000,00 (€ 2.958.526,18).
