Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Crucifixion by Michael Rothenstein was sold in the Modern British and Irish Art auction at Bonhams in London in April last year. The price achieved of GBP 3,825.00 (€ 4,561.18) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael Rothenstein - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The White House, which sold at auction in May last year for GBP 15,120.00 (€ 17,787.24).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Crucifixion von Michael Rothenstein wurde im April letzten Jahres in der Auktion Modern British and Irish Art bei Bonhams in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.825,00 (€ 4.561,18) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Michael Rothenstein mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The White House beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für GBP 15.120,00 (€ 17.787,24) versteigert wurde.
