A top price for Margaret Heay Lewers - as previously expected
In November 2002 Christies in Melbourne held the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS, which included the work Three Ideas of Spring by Margaret Heay Lewers. The price achieved of AUD 10,575.00 (€ 5,963.61) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 9,000.00 – 12,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Three Ideas of Spring is the most expensive artwork by Margaret Heay Lewers that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im November 2002 führte Christies in Melbourne die Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Three Ideas of Spring von Margaret Heay Lewers zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 10.575,00 (€ 5.963,61) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 9.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Three Ideas of Spring das teuerste Kunstwerk von Margaret Heay Lewers, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
