Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Bridget Riley could be acquired at Bonhams in London in September this year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Blazing a TrailModern British Women auction, the work Sequence Study, Pale Colours changed hands for GBP 38,400.00 (€ 38,400.00) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bridget Riley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Diagonal Curve) in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 4,338,500.00 (€ 5,207,615.75).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Bridget Riley konnte im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Blazing a TrailModern British Women wechselte die Arbeit Sequence Study, Pale Colours für GBP 38.400,00 (€ 38.400,00) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bridget Riley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Diagonal Curve) im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.338.500,00 (€ 5.207.615,75).
