Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Alexander Johnston could be acquired at Christies in New York in October 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Cotters Saturday Night changed hands for USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,478.47) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Alexander Johnston have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Sabbath in June 2005 with an auction result of GBP 5,040.00 (€ 7,469.60).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Alexander Johnston konnte im Oktober 2008 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wechselte die Arbeit Cotters Saturday Night für USD 1.875,00 (€ 1.478,47) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alexander Johnston auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Sabbath im Juni 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.040,00 (€ 7.469,60).
