Upper estimate price exceeded by 27 %.
In January 2001 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction PICTURES, WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS AT THE KUNSTFABRIEK, which included the work Sailing-boat by Sam Middleton. The »bidding war« ended at NLG 1,527.50 (€ 668.40), 27% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sam Middleton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jazz on Easter Sunday in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 17,500.00 (€ 15,455.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 27 % übertroffen
Im Januar 2001 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion PICTURES, WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS AT THE KUNSTFABRIEK durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sailing-boat von Sam Middleton zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von NLG 1.527,50 (€ 668,40) und damit 27% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sam Middleton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jazz on Easter Sunday im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 17.500,00 (€ 15.455,27).
