Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
In September 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Prints and Multiples, which included the work Herringbone Floor by Rachel Whiteread. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,550.00 (€ 2,966.96), 28% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Rachel Whiteread achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Colours) in July 2008 with an auction result of GBP 445,250.00 (€ 565,695.14).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
Im September 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Prints and Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Herringbone Floor von Rachel Whiteread zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.550,00 (€ 2.966,96) und damit 28% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Rachel Whiteread erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Colours) im Juli 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 445.250,00 (€ 565.695,14).
