Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2011 Christies in London held the auction Maritime Art, which included the work Queen of Clippers of Brixham (illustrated); and Amy of Plymouth by Anton de Clerk. The price achieved of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,143.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Anton de Clerk - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The British Topsail Schooner Coronella Passing A Lighthouse; And The Coronella At Sea By The West Hinder Lightship, which sold at auction in May 2006 for GBP 2,160.00 (€ 3,152.90).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Maritime Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Queen of Clippers of Brixham (illustrated); and Amy of Plymouth von Anton de Clerk zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.143,50) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Anton de Clerk mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The British Topsail Schooner Coronella Passing A Lighthouse; And The Coronella At Sea By The West Hinder Lightship beobachtet, die im Mai 2006 für GBP 2.160,00 (€ 3.152,90) versteigert wurde.
