Upper estimate price exceeded by 53 %.
In September 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Prints and Multiples, which included the work Red Playing Games I by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,530.00 (€ 1,780.18), 53% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Glacier (Bone) in November 2016 with an auction result of GBP 106,250.00 (€ 125,364.55).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 53 % übertroffen
Im September 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Prints and Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Red Playing Games I von Wilhelmina Barns-Graham zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.530,00 (€ 1.780,18) und damit 53% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Wilhelmina Barns-Graham erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Glacier (Bone) im November 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 106.250,00 (€ 125.364,55).
