In September 2010 Christies in London held the auction Exploration and Travel including the Polar Sale, which included the work Sunset by Apsley George Benet Cherry-Garrard. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,445.76), 25% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Apsley George Benet Cherry-Garrard achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Cherry-Garrard's silk sledging flag, sewn and embroidered by his sister, Ida Cherry-Garrard, and carried on Scott's British Antarctic Expedition, 1910-13 in September 2008 with an auction result of GBP 37,250.00 (€ 47,098.86).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Im September 2010 führte Christies in London die Auktion Exploration and Travel including the Polar Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sunset von Apsley George Benet Cherry-Garrard zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.445,76) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Apsley George Benet Cherry-Garrard erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Cherry-Garrard's silk sledging flag, sewn and embroidered by his sister, Ida Cherry-Garrard, and carried on Scott's British Antarctic Expedition, 1910-13 im September 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 37.250,00 (€ 47.098,86).
