Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
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 Rock Bunting sold for GBP 4,590.00 (€ 5,222.01) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mary Fedden achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work My Things in October 2008 with an auction result of GBP 103,250.00 (€ 131,606.71).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% 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 Rock Bunting für GBP 4.590,00 (€ 5.222,01) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mary Fedden erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit My Things im Oktober 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 103.250,00 (€ 131.606,71).
