A top price for George Weissbort

When the work Still Life with Artist's Materials by George Weissbort was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2000, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 1,200.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 6,462.50 (€ 11,063.54). This high result makes Still Life with Artist's Materials the most expensive artwork by George Weissbort that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für George Weissbort

Als die Arbeit Still Life with Artist's Materials von George Weissbort im April 2000 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 1.200,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 6.462,50 (€ 11.063,54) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Still Life with Artist's Materials zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von George Weissbort, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
