Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Hide and Seek by Fergus Connell was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2004, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 597.50 (€ 889.26). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Fergus Connell - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ready for a walk, which sold at auction in December 2006 for GBP 1,320.00 (€ 1,959.05).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Hide and Seek von Fergus Connell im Juni 2004 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 597,50 (€ 889,26) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Fergus Connell mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Ready for a walk beobachtet, die im Dezember 2006 für GBP 1.320,00 (€ 1.959,05) versteigert wurde.
