Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work The artificial boundaries of illusion by Terry Rodgers was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 20,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at EUR 75,400.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Terry Rodgers; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The Variable Frequencies of Restraint sold at auction in December 2021 with the realized price of EUR 106,250.00.
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit The artificial boundaries of illusion von Terry Rodgers im September 2012 bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – EUR 20.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit EUR 75.400,00 mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Terry Rodgers; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit The Variable Frequencies of Restraint im Dezember 2021 mit dem Hammerpreis von EUR 106.250,00.
