Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
In June this year Bonhams in London held the auction Modern British & Irish Art, which included the work Bather No.1 by Keith Vaughan. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 12,800.00 (€ 14,897.00), 28% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Keith Vaughan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sixth Assembly of Figures in May last year with an auction result of GBP 705,600.00 (€ 830,071.23).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
Im Juni diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Modern British & Irish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Bather No.1 von Keith Vaughan zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 12.800,00 (€ 14.897,00) und damit 28% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Keith Vaughan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Sixth Assembly of Figures im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 705.600,00 (€ 830.071,23).
