Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

When the work Two Horses By A Fence by Sawrey Gilpin was auctioned at Sothebys in London in May 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 12,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 45,000.00 (€ 51,242.93). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Sawrey Gilpin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hawking, which sold at auction in November 2007 for GBP 84,500.00 (€ 118,321.86).

Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Two Horses By A Fence von Sawrey Gilpin im Mai 2018 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 12.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 45.000,00 (€ 51.242,93) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Sawrey Gilpin mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Hawking beobachtet, die im November 2007 für GBP 84.500,00 (€ 118.321,86) versteigert wurde.
