Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Colony (studio) (1) by Sarah Jones was auctioned at Phillips in London in December 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 875.00 (€ 1,052.49). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sarah Jones achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Dining Room I-III in October 2001 with an auction result of GBP 7,050.00 (€ 11,393.83).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Colony (studio) (1) von Sarah Jones im Dezember 2013 bei Phillips in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 875,00 (€ 1.052,49) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sarah Jones erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Dining Room I-III im Oktober 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.050,00 (€ 11.393,83).
