Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Norman Thelwell could be acquired at Christies in London in August 2015 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Christie's Interiors - Including 20th/21st Century Pictures auction, the work Be my valentine; Didn't you hear the sonic bang mister?; and Oh he saw our picnic alright! changed hands for GBP 750.00 (€ 1,029.32) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Admittedly, works by Norman Thelwell have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work 'How many trading stamps did they give you with him?' in December 2010 with an auction result of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,349.99).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Norman Thelwell konnte im August 2015 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors - Including 20th/21st Century Pictures wechselte die Arbeit Be my valentine; Didn't you hear the sonic bang mister?; and Oh he saw our picnic alright! für GBP 750,00 (€ 1.029,32) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Norman Thelwell auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit 'How many trading stamps did they give you with him?' im Dezember 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.349,99).
