Upper estimate price exceeded by 61 %.
In October last year Christies in London held the auction Modern British & Irish Art Day Sale, which included the work Linear Ceruleum With Five Discs : May 1968 by Patrick Heron. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 40,320.00 (€ 46,972.35), 61% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Patrick Heron achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Blue Table With Window: 1954 in June 2011 with an auction result of GBP 1,049,250.00 (€ 1,160,800.09).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 61 % übertroffen
Im Oktober letzten Jahres führte Christies in London die Auktion Modern British & Irish Art Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Linear Ceruleum With Five Discs : May 1968 von Patrick Heron zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 40.320,00 (€ 46.972,35) und damit 61% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Patrick Heron erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Blue Table With Window: 1954 im Juni 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.049.250,00 (€ 1.160.800,09).
