Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Mark Gertler achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in June 2018. In the Modern & Post-War British Art Day Sale auction, the work Allegory sold for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 25,428.83) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mark Gertler achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Violinist in June 2015 with an auction result of GBP 542,500.00 (€ 764,918.19).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Mark Gertler erzielte im Juni 2018 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern & Post-War British Art Day Sale wurde die Arbeit Allegory für GBP 22.500,00 (€ 25.428,83) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mark Gertler erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Violinist im Juni 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 542.500,00 (€ 764.918,19).
