Upper estimate price exceeded by 100 %.
This artwork by Eric Gill achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in September 2018. In the Made in Britain auction, the work Three Nudes sold for GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,231.29) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eric Gill achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work St Joan of Arc in June 2015 with an auction result of GBP 2,210,500.00 (€ 3,116,777.25).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 100 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Eric Gill erzielte im September 2018 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Made in Britain wurde die Arbeit Three Nudes für GBP 10.000,00 (€ 11.231,29) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Eric Gill erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit St Joan of Arc im Juni 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.210.500,00 (€ 3.116.777,25).
