Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work A game of chess by Albert Joseph Franke was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2012. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 7,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 7,500.00 (€ 9,344.67). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Albert Joseph Franke - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work German the Barber'S Shop, which sold at auction in November 2010 for GBP 28,750.00 (€ 34,356.21).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit A game of chess von Albert Joseph Franke kam im Mai 2012 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 7.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 7.500,00 (€ 9.344,67) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Albert Joseph Franke mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit German the Barber'S Shop beobachtet, die im November 2010 für GBP 28.750,00 (€ 34.356,21) versteigert wurde.
