Auction result well in line with expectations

In September 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction Made in Britain, which included the work Cherbourg (Study) No. Ii by Hughie O'Donoghue. The price achieved of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,125.42) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hughie O'Donoghue achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Owl Run in November 2019 with an auction result of GBP 93,750.00 (€ 110,085.42).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im September 2018 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Made in Britain durch, in der auch die Arbeit Cherbourg (Study) No. Ii von Hughie O'Donoghue zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.125,42) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hughie O'Donoghue erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Owl Run im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 93.750,00 (€ 110.085,42).
