Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Walter Beckers achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in April 2017. In the First Open auction, the work 11.22.63 sold for GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,859.43) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Walter Beckers - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Death Are Listening, which sold at auction in December 2007 for EUR 8,650.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Walter Beckers erzielte im April 2017 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion First Open wurde die Arbeit 11.22.63 für GBP 3.250,00 (€ 3.859,43) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Walter Beckers mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Death Are Listening beobachtet, die im Dezember 2007 für EUR 8.650,00 versteigert wurde.
