Artwork auctioned at eight times the upper estimate price
When the work Hotels and a Swimming Pool by Stanley Donwood was auctioned at Christies in October 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 15,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than eight times as high at GBP 125,000.00 (€ 148,091.24). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Stanley Donwood; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Residential Nemesis sold at auction in October 2021 with the realized price of GBP 137,500.00 (€ 162,900.36).
Kunstwerk zum Achtfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Hotels and a Swimming Pool von Stanley Donwood im Oktober 2021 bei Christies versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 15.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 125.000,00 (€ 148.091,24) mehr als achtmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Stanley Donwood; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Residential Nemesis im Oktober 2021 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 137.500,00 (€ 162.900,36).
