Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In February 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Travel & Exploration, which included the work A still life of mushrooms by John Longstaff. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 1,211.25 (€ 1,396.95). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Longstaff achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Master Rupert Ryan, 1898 in August 2021 with an auction result of AUD 61,500.00 (€ 52,118.64).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Februar 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Travel & Exploration durch, in der auch die Arbeit A still life of mushrooms von John Longstaff zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 1.200,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 1.211,25 (€ 1.396,95) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Longstaff erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Master Rupert Ryan, 1898 im August 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 61.500,00 (€ 52.118,64).
