Auction result well in line with expectations
The work CB8 SH5 N24, 1999-2000 by Bill Henson was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 10,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,252.20) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bill Henson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled 1987-88, which sold at auction in May 2005 for AUD 45,410.00 (€ 27,913.78).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit CB8 SH5 N24, 1999-2000 von Bill Henson kam im Mai 2018 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.252,20) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Bill Henson mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled 1987-88 beobachtet, die im Mai 2005 für AUD 45.410,00 (€ 27.913,78) versteigert wurde.
