A top price for Vicki Varvaressos - as previously expected
In August 2008 Sothebys in Melbourne held the auction Important Australian Art, which included the work Australian boy With Father by Vicki Varvaressos. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of AUD 6,000.00 – 9,000.00, the actual price achieved of AUD 6,240.00 (€ 3,642.59) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Australian boy With Father is the most expensive artwork by Vicki Varvaressos that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im August 2008 führte Sothebys in Melbourne die Auktion Important Australian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Australian boy With Father von Vicki Varvaressos zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von AUD 6.000,00 – 9.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von AUD 6.240,00 (€ 3.642,59) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Australian boy With Father das teuerste Kunstwerk von Vicki Varvaressos, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
