Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Paul Lee could be acquired at Christies in London in October 2013 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Auction auction, the work Untitled (Can Sculpture) changed hands for GBP 1,875.00 (€ 2,216.24) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Paul Lee - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled (Hand Towels With Bulbs), which sold at auction in March 2014 for USD 11,250.00 (€ 8,165.78).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Paul Lee konnte im Oktober 2013 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Auction wechselte die Arbeit Untitled (Can Sculpture) für GBP 1.875,00 (€ 2.216,24) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Paul Lee mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled (Hand Towels With Bulbs) beobachtet, die im März 2014 für USD 11.250,00 (€ 8.165,78) versteigert wurde.
