Auction result misses estimated price range
In October this year a collector was able to acquire the work The Seabird Suite by Elisabeth Frink for USD 7,680.00 (€ 7,267.22). This price was achieved in the auction Prints & Multiples at Bonhams in London and was even below the estimate range of USD 8,000.00 – 10,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Elisabeth Frink achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Seated Man in June 2014 with an auction result of GBP 1,082,500.00 (€ 1,352,531.96).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Oktober diesen Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Seabird Suite von Elisabeth Frink für USD 7.680,00 (€ 7.267,22) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Prints & Multiples bei Bonhams in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 10.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Elisabeth Frink erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Seated Man im Juni 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.082.500,00 (€ 1.352.531,96).
