Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2008 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work "Triumph" a racing pigeon, "Young Artistocrat" a racing pigeon by Andrew Beer. The price achieved of GBP 875.00 (€ 1,111.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Andrew Beer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sky Pilot; And Guiding Star, which sold at auction in June 2006 for GBP 1,560.00 (€ 2,257.29).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit "Triumph" a racing pigeon, "Young Artistocrat" a racing pigeon von Andrew Beer zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 875,00 (€ 1.111,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Andrew Beer mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sky Pilot; And Guiding Star beobachtet, die im Juni 2006 für GBP 1.560,00 (€ 2.257,29) versteigert wurde.
