Auction result well in line with expectations

In September 2014 Christies in London held the auction First Open/LDN, which included the work Sensible Ways by James Rielly. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 16,055.59) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James Rielly - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Random Acts of Kindness, which sold at auction in February 2002 for GBP 21,737.50 (€ 35,473.45).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im September 2014 führte Christies in London die Auktion First Open/LDN durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sensible Ways von James Rielly zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 16.055,59) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von James Rielly mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Random Acts of Kindness beobachtet, die im Februar 2002 für GBP 21.737,50 (€ 35.473,45) versteigert wurde.
