Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A Yorkshire Hillside by Alfred Augustus Glendening was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2016, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 3,500.00 (€ 3,231.17). Admittedly, works by Alfred Augustus Glendening have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Reed Cutter in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 20,315.00 (€ 31,422.70).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A Yorkshire Hillside von Alfred Augustus Glendening im Januar 2016 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 3.500,00 (€ 3.231,17) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alfred Augustus Glendening auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Reed Cutter im Juni 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 20.315,00 (€ 31.422,70).
