Sold at the upper estimate price
The work (I) Untitled Iv(Ii) Untitled Vi(Iii) Untitled V by Mark Francis was sold in the First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online auction at Christies in London in March 2021. The auction ended at the price of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,762.11), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mark Francis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Symbiosis (Mesh) in July 2008 with an auction result of GBP 32,450.00 (€ 41,228.09).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit (I) Untitled Iv(Ii) Untitled Vi(Iii) Untitled V von Mark Francis wurde im März 2021 in der Auktion First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online bei Christies in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.762,11) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mark Francis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Symbiosis (Mesh) im Juli 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 32.450,00 (€ 41.228,09).
