Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In June 2001 Christies in London held the auction CONTEMPORARY ART, which included the work The Invention Of Tradition, From 'Connosieurs' by Karen Knorr. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 1,600.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 1,762.50 (€ 2,927.86). Admittedly, works by Karen Knorr have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work 'Ganesha’s Mount, Chavi Niwas, Jaipur' (from the series India Song), 2020 in November 2021 with an auction result of GBP 12,600.00 (€ 14,793.59).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im Juni 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion CONTEMPORARY ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Invention Of Tradition, From 'Connosieurs' von Karen Knorr zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 1.600,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 1.762,50 (€ 2.927,86) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Karen Knorr auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit 'Ganesha’s Mount, Chavi Niwas, Jaipur' (from the series India Song), 2020 im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.600,00 (€ 14.793,59).
