Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Buzzy, having a siesta; and Lambs in wolves clothing by Sam Morse Brown was auctioned at Christies in London in August 2006, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 800.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 2,880.00 (€ 4,282.74). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Sam Morse Brown; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The crucifixion of humanity sold at auction in August 2006 with the realized price of GBP 5,400.00 (€ 8,030.14).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Buzzy, having a siesta; and Lambs in wolves clothing von Sam Morse Brown im August 2006 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 800,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 2.880,00 (€ 4.282,74) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Sam Morse Brown; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit The crucifixion of humanity im August 2006 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 5.400,00 (€ 8.030,14).
