Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Twenty Photographic Pictures by David Hockney by David Hockney was auctioned at Christies in London in February 2012. It changed hands for a price of GBP 18,750.00 (€ 22,388.00) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Hockney achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nichols Canyon in December 2020 with an auction result of USD 41,067,500.00 (€ 33,579,313.16).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Twenty Photographic Pictures by David Hockney von David Hockney kam im Februar 2012 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 18.750,00 (€ 22.388,00) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Hockney erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nichols Canyon im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 41.067.500,00 (€ 33.579.313,16).
