In May 2021 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction 20th and 21st Century Art Afternoon Session, which included the work Child Soldier by Jammie Holmes. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 525,000.00 (€ 55,496.56), 31% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jammie Holmes - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work First Birthday, which sold at auction in May 2021 for HKD 1,500,000.00 (€ 158,561.59).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 31 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2021 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion 20th and 21st Century Art Afternoon Session durch, in der auch die Arbeit Child Soldier von Jammie Holmes zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 525.000,00 (€ 55.496,56) und damit 31% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Jammie Holmes mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit First Birthday beobachtet, die im Mai 2021 für HKD 1.500.000,00 (€ 158.561,59) versteigert wurde.
