Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Point Venus, Tahiti by Adolf von Meckel was sold in the Topographical Pictures, including China Trade Paintings. ARCTIC · AMERICAS · AFRICA · ASIA · AUSTRALASIA · ANTARCTICA auction at Christies in London in November 2020. The price achieved of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 9,767.95) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Adolf von Meckel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Nile at Bulak in October 2021 with an auction result of GBP 119,700.00 (€ 141,812.17).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Point Venus, Tahiti von Adolf von Meckel wurde im November 2020 in der Auktion Topographical Pictures, including China Trade Paintings. ARCTIC · AMERICAS · AFRICA · ASIA · AUSTRALASIA · ANTARCTICA bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 8.750,00 (€ 9.767,95) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Adolf von Meckel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Nile at Bulak im Oktober 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 119.700,00 (€ 141.812,17).
