Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Leslie Worth achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in June 2000. In the 20th Century British Art auction, the work Black Dog on the Downs sold for GBP 1,410.00 (€ 2,235.02) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 550.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Leslie Worth - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Boy And Bicycle, which sold at auction in November 2006 for GBP 4,320.00 (€ 6,415.34).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Leslie Worth erzielte im Juni 2000 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 20th Century British Art wurde die Arbeit Black Dog on the Downs für GBP 1.410,00 (€ 2.235,02) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 550,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Leslie Worth mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Boy And Bicycle beobachtet, die im November 2006 für GBP 4.320,00 (€ 6.415,34) versteigert wurde.
