Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2021 Christies in London held the auction 20th Century Evening Sale, which included the work The Like Above All Lovers by Lynette Yiadom-Boakye. The price achieved of GBP 512,500.00 (€ 602,055.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400,000.00 – 600,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lynette Yiadom-Boakye - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Highpower, which sold at auction in October last year for GBP 1,482,000.00 (€ 1,726,513.59).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2021 führte Christies in London die Auktion 20th Century Evening Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Like Above All Lovers von Lynette Yiadom-Boakye zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 512.500,00 (€ 602.055,48) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400.000,00 – 600.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Lynette Yiadom-Boakye mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Highpower beobachtet, die im Oktober letzten Jahres für GBP 1.482.000,00 (€ 1.726.513,59) versteigert wurde.
