Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Prints and Multiples, which included the work Leveret'S Leap by Gillian Ayres. The price achieved of GBP 1,020.00 (€ 1,186.78) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gillian Ayres achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nimbus in November 2018 with an auction result of GBP 75,000.00 (€ 84,597.72).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Prints and Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Leveret'S Leap von Gillian Ayres zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.020,00 (€ 1.186,78) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gillian Ayres erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nimbus im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 75.000,00 (€ 84.597,72).
