Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Foliate Head: 2 by John Piper was auctioned at Bonhams in London in November this year. The price achieved of GBP 2,304.00 (€ 2,669.83) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Piper achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Abstract Painting, 1935 in November 2015 with an auction result of GBP 362,500.00 (€ 516,327.40).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Foliate Head: 2 von John Piper kam im November diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.304,00 (€ 2.669,83) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Piper erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Abstract Painting, 1935 im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 362.500,00 (€ 516.327,40).
