Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Hm The Queen On Hmy Britannia, March 1972 by Patrick Lichfield was auctioned at Sothebys in London in September 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 1,200.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,962.10). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Patrick Lichfield; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Mick & Bianca Jagger After Their Wedding, Saint Tropez, France, 1971 sold at auction in March 2016 with the realized price of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,680.37).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Hm The Queen On Hmy Britannia, March 1972 von Patrick Lichfield im September 2016 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 1.200,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.962,10) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Patrick Lichfield; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Mick & Bianca Jagger After Their Wedding, Saint Tropez, France, 1971 im März 2016 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 8.680,37).
