Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2014 Christies in Amsterdam held the auction Modern Art, which included the work Landschap In Languedoc by Wim Oepts. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 17,500.00 17% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wim Oepts - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The yellow house, which sold at auction in December 2006 for EUR 36,000.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Dezember 2014 führte Christies in Amsterdam die Auktion Modern Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Landschap In Languedoc von Wim Oepts zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von EUR 17.500,00 und damit 17% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Wim Oepts mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The yellow house beobachtet, die im Dezember 2006 für EUR 36.000,00 versteigert wurde.
