Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Untitled (View of the City and Harbour Bridge) by Sheila Lethbridge McDonald was auctioned at Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts in September this year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of AUD 600.00 – 900.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for AUD 492.00 (€ 299.88). Other works by Sheila Lethbridge McDonald have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in April 2005 by the work Around Ayers Rock at AUD 597.50 (€ 362.32).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Untitled (View of the City and Harbour Bridge) von Sheila Lethbridge McDonald im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von AUD 600,00 – 900,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für AUD 492,00 (€ 299,88) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Sheila Lethbridge McDonald wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im April 2005 die Arbeit Around Ayers Rock mit AUD 597,50 (€ 362,32).
