Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Danish A Turkish Harbour By Moonlight by Anton Melbye was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2014. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 8,125.00 (€ 10,459.57). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Anton Melbye - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work “Det franske Skruelinieskib Napoleon paa Rheden af Beikos i Bosperus”, which sold at auction in March this year for DKK 300,000.00 (€ 40,259.38).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Danish A Turkish Harbour By Moonlight von Anton Melbye kam im Dezember 2014 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 8.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 8.125,00 (€ 10.459,57) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Anton Melbye mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit “Det franske Skruelinieskib Napoleon paa Rheden af Beikos i Bosperus” beobachtet, die im März diesen Jahres für DKK 300.000,00 (€ 40.259,38) versteigert wurde.
