Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2004 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art, which included the work An allegory of Spring by Adolf Lins. The price achieved of GBP 2,629.00 (€ 3,720.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adolf Lins - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Goose Girl, which sold at auction in October 2003 for USD 11,950.00 (€ 10,293.74).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit An allegory of Spring von Adolf Lins zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.629,00 (€ 3.720,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Adolf Lins mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Goose Girl beobachtet, die im Oktober 2003 für USD 11.950,00 (€ 10.293,74) versteigert wurde.
