Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Dieppe Harbour by Ambrose McEvoy was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2020, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 750.00 (€ 846.90). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ambrose McEvoy achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Dorothy Duveen, Three-Quarter Length, Seated On A Red Chair in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 13,200.00 (€ 19,588.14).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Dieppe Harbour von Ambrose McEvoy im März 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 750,00 (€ 846,90) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ambrose McEvoy erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Dorothy Duveen, Three-Quarter Length, Seated On A Red Chair im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 13.200,00 (€ 19.588,14).
