This artwork by Rowan Gillespie achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2012. In the Modern British and Irish Art auction, the work Dancer sold for GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,933.11) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Rowan Gillespie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work When Hope And History Rhyme in October 2015 with an auction result of GBP 161,000.00 (€ 225,198.79).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 100 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Rowan Gillespie erzielte im Dezember 2012 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern British and Irish Art wurde die Arbeit Dancer für GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.933,11) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Rowan Gillespie erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit When Hope And History Rhyme im Oktober 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 161.000,00 (€ 225.198,79).
