Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Swirl by Tim Stoner was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2010, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,344.37). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tim Stoner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Eternity in February 2007 with an auction result of GBP 28,800.00 (€ 42,694.97).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Swirl von Tim Stoner im November 2010 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.125,00 (€ 1.344,37) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tim Stoner erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Eternity im Februar 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 28.800,00 (€ 42.694,97).
