Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Children'S Swimming Pool by Leon Kossoff was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2021. The result of GBP 20,000.00 (€ 23,494.85) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Leon Kossoff achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Willesden Junction - Autumn Afternoon in November 2018 with an auction result of GBP 1,388,750.00 (€ 1,566,467.81).

Die Arbeit Children'S Swimming Pool von Leon Kossoff kam im März 2021 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 20.000,00 (€ 23.494,85) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Leon Kossoff erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Willesden Junction - Autumn Afternoon im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.388.750,00 (€ 1.566.467,81).
