In November 2021 Phillips in London held the auction Photographs, which included the work Ali Underwater by Flip Schulke. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 15,120.00 (€ 17,752.30), 26% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Flip Schulke - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Muhammad Ali Boxing Underwater, which sold at auction in November 2008 for GBP 37,250.00 (€ 45,038.05).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Im November 2021 führte Phillips in London die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Ali Underwater von Flip Schulke zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 15.120,00 (€ 17.752,30) und damit 26% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Flip Schulke mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Muhammad Ali Boxing Underwater beobachtet, die im November 2008 für GBP 37.250,00 (€ 45.038,05) versteigert wurde.
