Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

When the work The Barefooted Scurry Home by Jadé Fadojutimi was auctioned at Sothebys in London in October 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 250,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 825,700.00 (€ 978,231.49). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Jadé Fadojutimi; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Quirk my mannerism sold at auction in November this year with the realized price of USD 1,935,500.00 (€ 1,774,385.77).

Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit The Barefooted Scurry Home von Jadé Fadojutimi im Oktober 2021 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 250.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 825.700,00 (€ 978.231,49) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Jadé Fadojutimi; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Quirk my mannerism im November diesen Jahres mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 1.935.500,00 (€ 1.774.385,77).
