Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Kate in Red Dress by Mary McCartney was auctioned at Phillips in an online auction in October 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 40,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at HKD 237,500.00 (€ 26,305.06). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Mary McCartney; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Dreamy in red dress, for Stella McCartney Autumn campaign, 2003 sold at auction in September 2013 with the realized price of GBP 30,000.00 (€ 35,860.36).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Kate in Red Dress von Mary McCartney im Oktober 2020 bei Phillips in einer Online-Auktion versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 40.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 237.500,00 (€ 26.305,06) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Mary McCartney; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Dreamy in red dress, for Stella McCartney Autumn campaign, 2003 im September 2013 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 30.000,00 (€ 35.860,36).
