Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
The work Hygiea by Mark Francis was sold in the New Now auction at Phillips in London in December 2018. It achieved a price of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 16,711.33), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mark Francis - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Symbiosis (Mesh), which sold at auction in July 2008 for GBP 32,450.00 (€ 41,228.09).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Hygiea von Mark Francis wurde im Dezember 2018 in der Auktion New Now bei Phillips in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 15.000,00 (€ 16.711,33) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Für andere Arbeiten von Mark Francis mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Symbiosis (Mesh) beobachtet, die im Juli 2008 für GBP 32.450,00 (€ 41.228,09) versteigert wurde.
