Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Rob Scholte achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in May 2019. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction, the work Deep Water Horizon sold for EUR 21,250.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 8,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Rob Scholte; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Overspel (Adultery) sold at auction in April last year with the realized price of EUR 40,320.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Rob Scholte erzielte im Mai 2019 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art wurde die Arbeit Deep Water Horizon für EUR 21.250,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 8.000,00. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Rob Scholte; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Overspel (Adultery) im April letzten Jahres mit dem Hammerpreis von EUR 40.320,00.
