Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March this year Bonhams held the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art, which included the work A Taste of the Orient by Caroline Walker. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 80,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 88,500.00 (€ 100,685.84). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Caroline Walker achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Threshold in March this year with an auction result of GBP 927,100.00 (€ 1,054,755.33).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im März diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Taste of the Orient von Caroline Walker zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 80.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 88.500,00 (€ 100.685,84) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Caroline Walker erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Threshold im März diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 927.100,00 (€ 1.054.755,33).
