Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Michael Canney achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Los Angeles in July this year. In the Modern British and Irish Art auction, the work Untitled (Composition in Grey and Black) sold for GBP 7,040.00 (€ 8,213.55) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael Canney - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Offshore Islands, which sold at auction in November 2011 for GBP 25,000.00 (€ 29,184.94).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Michael Canney erzielte im Juli diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern British and Irish Art wurde die Arbeit Untitled (Composition in Grey and Black) für GBP 7.040,00 (€ 8.213,55) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Michael Canney mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Offshore Islands beobachtet, die im November 2011 für GBP 25.000,00 (€ 29.184,94) versteigert wurde.
