Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Mary Newcomb achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2020. In the The Delighted Eye: Works from the Collection of Allen and Beryl Freer auction, the work Three Cockerels sold for GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,865.84) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mary Newcomb achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Guinea Fowl on a Fence in March 2000 with an auction result of GBP 38,900.00 (€ 64,692.48).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Mary Newcomb erzielte im Januar 2020 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Delighted Eye: Works from the Collection of Allen and Beryl Freer wurde die Arbeit Three Cockerels für GBP 3.250,00 (€ 3.865,84) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.200,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mary Newcomb erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Guinea Fowl on a Fence im März 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 38.900,00 (€ 64.692,48).
