Description
BRIDGET RILEY (b. 1931) Untitled (B), from: Nineteen Greys screenprint in shades of grey, 1968, on card, signed, dated and titled in pencil, numbered 18/75 (there were also six artist's proofs), printed by Kelpra Studio, London, with their inkstamp verso Image & Sheet 760 x 757 mm.
Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In September this year Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Prints and Multiples, which included the work Untitled (B), from: Nineteen Greys by Bridget Riley. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 6,930.00 (€ 6,930.00), 16% above the upper estimate. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im September diesen Jahres führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Prints and Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (B), from: Nineteen Greys von Bridget Riley zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 6.930,00 (€ 6.930,00) und damit 16% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
