Despite a disappointment, a good price for Peter Rose Pulham
In February 2016 a collector was able to acquire the work Grisaille Figures I by Peter Rose Pulham for GBP 12,500.00 (€ 16,017.21). This price was achieved in the auction The Art of the Surreal at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, Grisaille Figures I is the most expensive artwork by Peter Rose Pulham that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Peter Rose Pulham
Im Februar 2016 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Grisaille Figures I von Peter Rose Pulham für GBP 12.500,00 (€ 16.017,21) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The Art of the Surreal bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Grisaille Figures I das teuerste Kunstwerk von Peter Rose Pulham, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
