Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work "Från Arild I" (From Arild I) by Bror Hjorth was auctioned at Bukowski in Stockholm in October 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of SEK 900,000.00 – 1,000,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for SEK 880,000.00 (€ 101,633.07). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bror Hjorth - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work "Blå Eva", which sold at auction in April 2016 for SEK 2,400,000.00 (€ 261,165.98).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit "Från Arild I" (From Arild I) von Bror Hjorth im Oktober 2013 bei Bukowski in Stockholm versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von SEK 900.000,00 – 1.000.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für SEK 880.000,00 (€ 101.633,07) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Bror Hjorth mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit "Blå Eva" beobachtet, die im April 2016 für SEK 2.400.000,00 (€ 261.165,98) versteigert wurde.
