Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2020 Christies in London held the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale, which included the work Value Coordinate #1 It's Sweet! by Fiona Rae. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 21,250.00 (€ 23,596.31), 18% 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 leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2020 führte Christies in London die Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Value Coordinate #1 It's Sweet! von Fiona Rae zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 21.250,00 (€ 23.596,31) und damit 18% 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.
