Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Reverie by Thomas Benjamin Kennington was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 22,500.00 (€ 25,067.00) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Benjamin Kennington - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Wedding Dress, which sold at auction in May 2011 for GBP 85,250.00 (€ 97,483.64).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Reverie von Thomas Benjamin Kennington kam im Dezember 2018 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 22.500,00 (€ 25.067,00) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Benjamin Kennington mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Wedding Dress beobachtet, die im Mai 2011 für GBP 85.250,00 (€ 97.483,64) versteigert wurde.
