A top price for Lucas Kilian - as previously expected
The work The Fountain Of Augustus In Augsburg by Lucas Kilian was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,527.70) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Fountain Of Augustus In Augsburg is the most expensive artwork by Lucas Kilian that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit The Fountain Of Augustus In Augsburg von Lucas Kilian kam im Dezember 2015 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 1.125,00 (€ 1.527,70) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Fountain Of Augustus In Augsburg das teuerste Kunstwerk von Lucas Kilian, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
