Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Philip Jones Griffiths achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2013. In the Photographs auction, the work Outside Pentonville Gaol After A Hanging, 1958 sold for GBP 1,750.00 (€ 2,068.49) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philip Jones Griffiths - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Scenes Of British Life, 1960S, which sold at auction in October 2013 for GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,126.20).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Philip Jones Griffiths erzielte im Oktober 2013 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Photographs wurde die Arbeit Outside Pentonville Gaol After A Hanging, 1958 für GBP 1.750,00 (€ 2.068,49) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Philip Jones Griffiths mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Scenes Of British Life, 1960S beobachtet, die im Oktober 2013 für GBP 6.875,00 (€ 8.126,20) versteigert wurde.
