Auction result well in line with expectations
In August 2001 Christies in Sydney held the auction AUSTRALIAN AND INTERNATIONAL PAINTINGS, which included this untitled work by Michael Johnson. The price achieved of AUD 30,550.00 (€ 17,735.13) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 25,000.00 – 40,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael Johnson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Australian Yellow Ochre, which sold at auction in November 2007 for AUD 66,000.00 (€ 39,758.17).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im August 2001 führte Christies in Sydney die Auktion AUSTRALIAN AND INTERNATIONAL PAINTINGS durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Michael Johnson zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 30.550,00 (€ 17.735,13) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 25.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Michael Johnson mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Australian Yellow Ochre beobachtet, die im November 2007 für AUD 66.000,00 (€ 39.758,17) versteigert wurde.
