A top price for Sherril Schell - as previously expected

In November 2007 Christies in London held the auction Photographs, which included the work Pattern of Light and Shadow Under Elevated R.R. Looking Up, 1930 by Sherril Schell. The result of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 7,001.29) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Pattern of Light and Shadow Under Elevated R.R. Looking Up, 1930 is the most expensive artwork by Sherril Schell that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Im November 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Pattern of Light and Shadow Under Elevated R.R. Looking Up, 1930 von Sherril Schell zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 7.001,29) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Pattern of Light and Shadow Under Elevated R.R. Looking Up, 1930 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Sherril Schell, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
