Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In August 2004 Christies in Sydney held the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS, which included the work Painting (Winter Landscape With Burning City) by Peter Booth. Here, the upper estimate of AUD 50,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for AUD 53,775.00 (€ 31,210.95). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Peter Booth - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Australian Untitled, 2002, which sold at auction in November 2008 for AUD 168,000.00 (€ 86,633.69).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im August 2004 führte Christies in Sydney die Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Painting (Winter Landscape With Burning City) von Peter Booth zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von AUD 50.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für AUD 53.775,00 (€ 31.210,95) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Peter Booth mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Australian Untitled, 2002 beobachtet, die im November 2008 für AUD 168.000,00 (€ 86.633,69) versteigert wurde.
