Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Visitor by Garry Shead was auctioned at Christies in Melbourne in November 2005. The price achieved of AUD 131,450.00 (€ 82,437.77) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 120,000.00 – 150,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Garry Shead - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Australian Queen Of Suburbia, which sold at auction in August 2007 for AUD 432,000.00 (€ 258,325.93).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Visitor von Garry Shead kam im November 2005 bei Christies in Melbourne zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 131.450,00 (€ 82.437,77) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 120.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Garry Shead mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Australian Queen Of Suburbia beobachtet, die im August 2007 für AUD 432.000,00 (€ 258.325,93) versteigert wurde.
