A top price for Richard Jack - as previously expected
The work The Toast by Richard Jack was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2003. It changed hands for a price of GBP 94,850.00 (€ 136,158.58) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 70,000.00 – 100,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Toast is the most expensive artwork by Richard Jack that we have observed at auctions so far.

Die Arbeit The Toast von Richard Jack kam im November 2003 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 94.850,00 (€ 136.158,58) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 70.000,00 – 100.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Toast das teuerste Kunstwerk von Richard Jack, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
