Auction result well in line with expectations
In August 2007 Sothebys in Melbourne held the auction Important Australian Art Including Selected International Works, which included the work Australian Spring by Penleigh Boyd. The price achieved of AUD 18,000.00 (€ 10,763.58) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Penleigh Boyd achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Australian Ghost Gum At Kangaroo Flat in August 2007 with an auction result of AUD 264,000.00 (€ 157,865.85).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im August 2007 führte Sothebys in Melbourne die Auktion Important Australian Art Including Selected International Works durch, in der auch die Arbeit Australian Spring von Penleigh Boyd zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 18.000,00 (€ 10.763,58) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Penleigh Boyd erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Australian Ghost Gum At Kangaroo Flat im August 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 264.000,00 (€ 157.865,85).
