Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2003 Christies in Melbourne held the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL & CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS, which included the work At Papunya by Tim Johnson. The price achieved of AUD 3,290.00 (€ 1,821.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 2,800.00 – 3,500.00. Admittedly, works by Tim Johnson have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Australian Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri in August 2009 with an auction result of AUD 14,400.00 (€ 8,466.04).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2003 führte Christies in Melbourne die Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL & CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit At Papunya von Tim Johnson zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 3.290,00 (€ 1.821,16) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 2.800,00 – 3.500,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Tim Johnson auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Australian Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri im August 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 14.400,00 (€ 8.466,04).
