In March 2021 Christies in London held the auction Modern British Art Day Sale, which included the work The Thames At Battersea by Christopher Wood. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 37,500.00 (€ 44,052.84), 25% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Christopher Wood achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Drying Sails, Mousehole, Cornwall in June last year with an auction result of GBP 479,100.00 (€ 556,577.92).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Im März 2021 führte Christies in London die Auktion Modern British Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Thames At Battersea von Christopher Wood zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 37.500,00 (€ 44.052,84) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Christopher Wood erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Drying Sails, Mousehole, Cornwall im Juni letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 479.100,00 (€ 556.577,92).
