Auction result well in line with expectations

In June 2017 Sothebys in London held the auction to be immediately followed by the Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale, which included the work Gramm by John Chamberlain. The price achieved of GBP 668,750.00 (€ 761,581.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 600,000.00 – 800,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Chamberlain have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Nutcracker in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 5,534,300.00 (€ 4,742,330.76).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Juni 2017 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion to be immediately followed by the Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Gramm von John Chamberlain zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 668.750,00 (€ 761.581,48) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 600.000,00 – 800.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Chamberlain auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Nutcracker im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.534.300,00 (€ 4.742.330,76).
