This artwork by Mary Fedden achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in March this year. In the Modern British and Irish Art auction, the work Kasbah sold for GBP 14,025.00 (€ 15,956.15) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00. Admittedly, works by Mary Fedden have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work My Things in October 2008 with an auction result of GBP 103,250.00 (€ 131,606.71).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Mary Fedden erzielte im März diesen Jahres bei Bonhams einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern British and Irish Art wurde die Arbeit Kasbah für GBP 14.025,00 (€ 15.956,15) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 8.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Mary Fedden auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit My Things im Oktober 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 103.250,00 (€ 131.606,71).
