Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Norwegian Foss Og Hassel Verk (Waterfall & Fra Hasselbrek) by Thomas Fearnley was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2009, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,133.92). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Fearnley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Arco naturale, Capri. in May 2014 with an auction result of EUR 81,250.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Norwegian Foss Og Hassel Verk (Waterfall & Fra Hasselbrek) von Thomas Fearnley im Juni 2009 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 4.375,00 (€ 5.133,92) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Fearnley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Arco naturale, Capri. im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 81.250,00.
