Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Rising Falcon; Dutch Oven; and Windermere by Alfred Bright was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 625.00 (€ 794.07) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alfred Bright - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The 1907 Grand National, which sold at auction in November 2006 for GBP 1,920.00 (€ 2,851.26).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Rising Falcon; Dutch Oven; and Windermere von Alfred Bright kam im Juli 2008 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 625,00 (€ 794,07) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Alfred Bright mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The 1907 Grand National beobachtet, die im November 2006 für GBP 1.920,00 (€ 2.851,26) versteigert wurde.
