Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2003 a collector was able to acquire the work Nude and Nundah Rug by Ian Armstrong for AUD 881.25 (€ 531.62). This price was achieved in the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS at Christies in Melbourne and was even below the estimate range of AUD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ian Armstrong achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mount Korong in November 2000 with an auction result of AUD 16,450.00 (€ 9,956.28).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2003 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Nude and Nundah Rug von Ian Armstrong für AUD 881,25 (€ 531,62) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS bei Christies in Melbourne erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von AUD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ian Armstrong erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mount Korong im November 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 16.450,00 (€ 9.956,28).
