In December 2019 Phillips in London held the auction New Now, which included the work Untitled (blue & green) by Fiona Rae. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 20,000.00 (€ 23,637.66), 33% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Fiona Rae - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Figure 1i, which sold at auction in February 2015 for GBP 56,250.00 (€ 77,560.40).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2019 führte Phillips in London die Auktion New Now durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (blue & green) von Fiona Rae zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 20.000,00 (€ 23.637,66) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Fiona Rae mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Figure 1i beobachtet, die im Februar 2015 für GBP 56.250,00 (€ 77.560,40) versteigert wurde.
