A top price for Suzanne McClelland
When the work Ideal Proportions: Squeeze - A Winning Hand by Suzanne McClelland was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 3,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than six times as high at GBP 18,750.00 (€ 22,026.42). This high result makes Ideal Proportions: Squeeze - A Winning Hand the most expensive artwork by Suzanne McClelland that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Suzanne McClelland
Als die Arbeit Ideal Proportions: Squeeze - A Winning Hand von Suzanne McClelland im März 2021 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 3.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 18.750,00 (€ 22.026,42) mehr als sechsmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Ideal Proportions: Squeeze - A Winning Hand zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Suzanne McClelland, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
