Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In August 2007 Sothebys in Melbourne held the auction Important Australian Art Including Selected International Works, which included the work Australian The Hillside, 1953 by Lloyd Rees. Here, the upper estimate of AUD 18,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for AUD 20,400.00 (€ 12,198.72). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lloyd Rees achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Australian The Morning Ferry in November 2009 with an auction result of AUD 240,000.00 (€ 146,346.54).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im August 2007 führte Sothebys in Melbourne die Auktion Important Australian Art Including Selected International Works durch, in der auch die Arbeit Australian The Hillside, 1953 von Lloyd Rees zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von AUD 18.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für AUD 20.400,00 (€ 12.198,72) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lloyd Rees erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Australian The Morning Ferry im November 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 240.000,00 (€ 146.346,54).
