Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Selected Photograms of Spiders by Patrick Bailly-Maitre-Grand was auctioned at Bonhams in London in July this year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 640.00 (€ 580.76). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Patrick Bailly-Maitre-Grand - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work De La Serie: "Les Gemelles", 1997, which sold at auction in May 2012 for EUR 2,188.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Selected Photograms of Spiders von Patrick Bailly-Maitre-Grand im Juli diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 640,00 (€ 580,76) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Patrick Bailly-Maitre-Grand mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit De La Serie: "Les Gemelles", 1997 beobachtet, die im Mai 2012 für EUR 2.188,00 versteigert wurde.
