Auction result well in line with expectations

In May 2017 Sothebys in London held the auction Photographs, which included the work ‘Untitled (Large Hadron Collider No.4)’, 2007 by Simon Norfolk. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,500.00 (€ 4,019.89) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Simon Norfolk have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Former Teahouse in a park next to the Afghan Exhibition of Economic and Social Achievements in the Shah Shahid district of Kabul in November 2008 with an auction result of GBP 13,750.00 (€ 16,624.78).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai 2017 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit ‘Untitled (Large Hadron Collider No.4)’, 2007 von Simon Norfolk zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 3.500,00 (€ 4.019,89) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Simon Norfolk auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Former Teahouse in a park next to the Afghan Exhibition of Economic and Social Achievements in the Shah Shahid district of Kabul im November 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 13.750,00 (€ 16.624,78).
