Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Nick Bibby could be acquired at Christies in New York in May this year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Three Private Collections: Belgravia, Berkshire and Guernsey auction, the work Wild boar changed hands for GBP 2,016.00 (€ 2,345.63) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,500.00 – 4,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nick Bibby - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bronze Barn Owl, which sold at auction in October 2018 for GBP 5,000.00 (€ 5,638.46).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Nick Bibby konnte im Mai diesen Jahres bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Three Private Collections: Belgravia, Berkshire and Guernsey wechselte die Arbeit Wild boar für GBP 2.016,00 (€ 2.345,63) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.500,00 – 4.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Nick Bibby mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bronze Barn Owl beobachtet, die im Oktober 2018 für GBP 5.000,00 (€ 5.638,46) versteigert wurde.
