Upper estimate price exceeded by 88 %.

This artwork by Abigail Lane achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in September 2018. In the Yellow Ball: The Frank and Lorna Dunphy Collection Online auction, the work For His Own Good sold for GBP 750.00 (€ 842.35) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 400.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Abigail Lane achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Ink Pad I in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 6,815.00 (€ 10,802.61).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 88 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Abigail Lane erzielte im September 2018 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Yellow Ball: The Frank and Lorna Dunphy Collection Online wurde die Arbeit For His Own Good für GBP 750,00 (€ 842,35) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 400,00.

Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Ink Pad I im Juni 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.815,00 (€ 10.802,61).
