Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2015 a collector was able to acquire the work Assemblage by Mark Boyle for GBP 3,750.00 (€ 5,341.32). This price was achieved in the auction Modern & Post-War British Art at Sothebys in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mark Boyle - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sandstone Study with Bricks and working Glove, which sold at auction in June 2002 for GBP 7,050.00 (€ 10,904.75).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2015 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Assemblage von Mark Boyle für GBP 3.750,00 (€ 5.341,32) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Modern & Post-War British Art bei Sothebys in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Mark Boyle mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sandstone Study with Bricks and working Glove beobachtet, die im Juni 2002 für GBP 7.050,00 (€ 10.904,75) versteigert wurde.
