Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
In March 2019 Sothebys in London held the auction Made in Britain, which included the work Nudes Birthday by Beryl Cook. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 32,500.00 (€ 37,721.77), 63% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Beryl Cook; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The Red Umbrella sold at auction in September last year with the realized price of GBP 38,100.00 (€ 43,361.48).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 63 % übertroffen
Im März 2019 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Made in Britain durch, in der auch die Arbeit Nudes Birthday von Beryl Cook zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 32.500,00 (€ 37.721,77) und damit 63% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Beryl Cook; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit The Red Umbrella im September letzten Jahres mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 38.100,00 (€ 43.361,48).
