Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Pass by Bridget Riley was auctioned at Bonhams in London in October last year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 800,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 906,300.00 (€ 1,055,829.46). Admittedly, works by Bridget Riley have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Untitled (Diagonal Curve) in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 4,338,500.00 (€ 5,207,615.75).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Pass von Bridget Riley kam im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 800.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 906.300,00 (€ 1.055.829,46) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Bridget Riley auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Untitled (Diagonal Curve) im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.338.500,00 (€ 5.207.615,75).
