Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Sunset Clause by Martin Westwood was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 375.00 (€ 334.02). Other works by Martin Westwood have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in November 2010 by the work without title at GBP 525.00 (€ 627.37).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Sunset Clause von Martin Westwood im Dezember 2019 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 375,00 (€ 334,02) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Martin Westwood wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im November 2010 die Arbeit ohne Titel mit GBP 525,00 (€ 627,37).
