A top price for Humphrey Ocean - as previously expected
The work Biashara Street, Nairobi by Humphrey Ocean was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in June 2011. The result of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,106.31) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,000.00 – 2,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Biashara Street, Nairobi is the most expensive artwork by Humphrey Ocean that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Biashara Street, Nairobi von Humphrey Ocean wurde im Juni 2011 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.106,31) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 2.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Biashara Street, Nairobi das teuerste Kunstwerk von Humphrey Ocean, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
