Despite a disappointment, a good price for Thom Merrick
When the work Scarpe con alberi (Shoes with Trees) by Thom Merrick was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2018, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 2,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 375.00 (€ 427.09). Despite this disappointing result, Scarpe con alberi (Shoes with Trees) is the most expensive artwork by Thom Merrick that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Thom Merrick
Als die Arbeit Scarpe con alberi (Shoes with Trees) von Thom Merrick im April 2018 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 375,00 (€ 427,09) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Scarpe con alberi (Shoes with Trees) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Thom Merrick, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
