Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Diogenes; and Harry and Diogenes Asleep in the Cowboys Holiday Inn by Robert Lenkiewicz was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2011, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 750.00 (€ 860.74). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Lenkiewicz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Painter With Karen On The Studio Bed in March 2007 with an auction result of GBP 48,000.00 (€ 70,650.52).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Diogenes; and Harry and Diogenes Asleep in the Cowboys Holiday Inn von Robert Lenkiewicz im Juli 2011 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 750,00 (€ 860,74) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Lenkiewicz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Painter With Karen On The Studio Bed im März 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 48.000,00 (€ 70.650,52).
