A top price for Alfred Reginald Thomson
When the work The London Amateur Boxing Championship held at the Royal Albert Hall, 1948 by Alfred Reginald Thomson was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than nine times as high at GBP 73,250.00 (€ 90,337.59). This high result makes The London Amateur Boxing Championship held at the Royal Albert Hall, 1948 the most expensive artwork by Alfred Reginald Thomson that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Alfred Reginald Thomson
Als die Arbeit The London Amateur Boxing Championship held at the Royal Albert Hall, 1948 von Alfred Reginald Thomson im Dezember 2012 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 8.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 73.250,00 (€ 90.337,59) mehr als neunmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht The London Amateur Boxing Championship held at the Royal Albert Hall, 1948 zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Alfred Reginald Thomson, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
