Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Australian Model by Howard Arkley was sold in the Important Australian Art auction at Sothebys in Sydney in November 2007. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of AUD 30,000.00 – 40,000.00, the actual price achieved of AUD 31,200.00 (€ 18,794.77) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Howard Arkley have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Australian Untitled in May 2007 with an auction result of AUD 180,000.00 (€ 110,678.66).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Australian Model von Howard Arkley wurde im November 2007 in der Auktion Important Australian Art bei Sothebys in Sydney versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von AUD 30.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von AUD 31.200,00 (€ 18.794,77) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Howard Arkley auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Australian Untitled im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 180.000,00 (€ 110.678,66).
