Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2018 Christies in London held the auction Modern British Art Day Sale, which included the work A Happy Christmas by Pauline Boty. The price achieved of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 9,869.73) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pauline Boty achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work With Love to Jean-Paul Belmondo in June last year with an auction result of GBP 1,159,500.00 (€ 1,347,009.17).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2018 führte Christies in London die Auktion Modern British Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Happy Christmas von Pauline Boty zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 8.750,00 (€ 9.869,73) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Pauline Boty erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit With Love to Jean-Paul Belmondo im Juni letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.159.500,00 (€ 1.347.009,17).
