Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price

When the work A study of a girl in a blue cloche hat by Leopold Pilichowski was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2001, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 200.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 1,116.25 (€ 1,871.42). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Leopold Pilichowski - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Shylock, which sold at auction in December 2013 for USD 9,375.00 (€ 6,803.83).

Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit A study of a girl in a blue cloche hat von Leopold Pilichowski im Mai 2001 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 200,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 1.116,25 (€ 1.871,42) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Leopold Pilichowski mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Shylock beobachtet, die im Dezember 2013 für USD 9.375,00 (€ 6.803,83) versteigert wurde.
