A top price for Tim Fargher
When the work Floribunda, Hacheston, Suffolk, 1988 by Tim Fargher was auctioned at Christies in London in February 2004, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than six times as high at GBP 3,346.00 (€ 4,995.74). This high result makes Floribunda, Hacheston, Suffolk, 1988 the most expensive artwork by Tim Fargher that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Tim Fargher
Als die Arbeit Floribunda, Hacheston, Suffolk, 1988 von Tim Fargher im Februar 2004 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 3.346,00 (€ 4.995,74) mehr als sechsmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Floribunda, Hacheston, Suffolk, 1988 zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Tim Fargher, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
