Upper estimate price exceeded by 26 %.
The work The Farm Machine by John Minton was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2020. It achieved a price of GBP 6,300.00 (€ 7,032.93), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Minton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jamaican Village in November 2016 with an auction result of GBP 293,000.00 (€ 345,711.19).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Farm Machine von John Minton kam im November 2020 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 6.300,00 (€ 7.032,93) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 26%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Minton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jamaican Village im November 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 293.000,00 (€ 345.711,19).
