Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Andrew Morton could be acquired at Christies in London in May 2005 for an unexpectedly low price. In the THE ROYAL & SUNALLIANCE COLLECTION auction, the work Portrait of Abel Chapman, three-quarter-length, seated, in a brown coat and red velvet waistcoat, with his left hand resting beside some documents addressed to 'Abel Chapman Esquire, London Assurance Corporation, Royal Exchange' changed hands for GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,125.89) - missing the lower end of the estimate r However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Andrew Morton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Philip Sidney, 1st Lord de L'Isle and Lady de L'Isle, which sold at auction in January 2005 for GBP 3,120.00 (€ 4,507.01).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Andrew Morton konnte im Mai 2005 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion THE ROYAL & SUNALLIANCE COLLECTION wechselte die Arbeit Portrait of Abel Chapman, three-quarter-length, seated, in a brown coat and red velvet waistcoat, with his left hand resting beside some documents addressed to 'Abel Chapman Esquire, London Assurance Corporation, Royal Exchange' für GBP 1.440,00 (€ 2.125,89) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Andrew Morton mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Philip Sidney, 1st Lord de L'Isle and Lady de L'Isle beobachtet, die im Januar 2005 für GBP 3.120,00 (€ 4.507,01) versteigert wurde.
