Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2008 a collector was able to acquire the work Standing Figure II by Robert Clatworthy for GBP 6,000.00 (€ 6,301.75). This price was achieved in the auction 20th Century British Art including Works from the Collection of Bannon & Barnabas McHenry at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert Clatworthy - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Horse & Rider, which sold at auction in October 2007 for GBP 10,625.00 (€ 15,258.20).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2008 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Standing Figure II von Robert Clatworthy für GBP 6.000,00 (€ 6.301,75) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion 20th Century British Art including Works from the Collection of Bannon & Barnabas McHenry bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Robert Clatworthy mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Horse & Rider beobachtet, die im Oktober 2007 für GBP 10.625,00 (€ 15.258,20) versteigert wurde.
