Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work "You'll go pony trekking on your own next year" by Norman Thelwell was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2014, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 700.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,994.35). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Norman Thelwell; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot 'How many trading stamps did they give you with him?' sold at auction in December 2010 with the realized price of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,349.99).
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit "You'll go pony trekking on your own next year" von Norman Thelwell im Mai 2014 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 700,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 3.250,00 (€ 3.994,35) mehr als viermal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Norman Thelwell; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit 'How many trading stamps did they give you with him?' im Dezember 2010 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.349,99).
