Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Bomb Hugger (Bomb Love) by Banksy was sold in the Contemporary Edition: London auction at Christies in London in March this year. The price achieved of GBP 63,000.00 (€ 71,674.67) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Banksy achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Love is in the Bin in October 2021 with an auction result of GBP 18,582,000.00 (€ 22,014,651.32).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Bomb Hugger (Bomb Love) von Banksy wurde im März diesen Jahres in der Auktion Contemporary Edition: London bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 63.000,00 (€ 71.674,67) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 50.000,00 – 70.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Banksy erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Love is in the Bin im Oktober 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.582.000,00 (€ 22.014.651,32).
