Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Peter Blake could be acquired at Phillips in London in January 2024 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Evening & Day Editions auction, the work Illustrations to Through the Looking-Glass: three plates; The Wrestlers: four plates; Girl in a Poppy Field; and Costume Life Drawing changed hands for GBP 1,270.00 (€ 2,125.55) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Peter Blake achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Boys with New Ties in June 2015 with an auction result of GBP 662,500.00 (€ 934,116.68).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Peter Blake konnte im Januar 2024 bei Phillips in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Evening & Day Editions wechselte die Arbeit Illustrations to Through the Looking-Glass: three plates; The Wrestlers: four plates; Girl in a Poppy Field; and Costume Life Drawing für GBP 1.270,00 (€ 2.125,55) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Peter Blake erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Boys with New Ties im Juni 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 662.500,00 (€ 934.116,68).
