Egyptian views, 1880s
15 albumen prints

This artwork by Antonio Beato achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2004. In the 19TH & 20TH CENTURY PHOTOGRAPHS auction, the work Egyptian Views, 1880S sold for GBP 597.50 (€ 859.50) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 300.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Antonio Beato - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vues de la Nubie et de la Haute-Egypte, which sold at auction in May 2003 for GBP 1,912.00 (€ 2,663.90).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 99 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Antonio Beato erzielte im November 2004 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 19TH & 20TH CENTURY PHOTOGRAPHS wurde die Arbeit Egyptian Views, 1880S für GBP 597,50 (€ 859,50) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 300,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Antonio Beato mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Vues de la Nubie et de la Haute-Egypte beobachtet, die im Mai 2003 für GBP 1.912,00 (€ 2.663,90) versteigert wurde.
