Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Cylindrical Vase by Hans Coper was auctioned at Sothebys in London in September 2019, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 28,750.00 (€ 32,440.97). Admittedly, works by Hans Coper have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Cycladic arrow form in October 2018 with an auction result of GBP 156,250.00 (€ 176,201.80).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Cylindrical Vase von Hans Coper im September 2019 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 8.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 28.750,00 (€ 32.440,97) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Hans Coper auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Cycladic arrow form im Oktober 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 156.250,00 (€ 176.201,80).
