Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
The work A trading brig on the estuary in light airs by Albert Ernest Markes was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2007. It achieved a price of GBP 384.00 (€ 565.20), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 28%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Albert Ernest Markes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A wrecked three-master on the sands with the local inhabitants salvaging what they can in May 2003 with an auction result of GBP 4,465.00 (€ 6,220.87).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit A trading brig on the estuary in light airs von Albert Ernest Markes kam im März 2007 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 384,00 (€ 565,20) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 28%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Albert Ernest Markes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A wrecked three-master on the sands with the local inhabitants salvaging what they can im Mai 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.465,00 (€ 6.220,87).
