A top price for Arthur Alexander Ballard - as previously expected
In July 2006 Christies in London held the auction 20th Century British Art including The Studio of Humphrey Jennings, which included the work View Over The Paris Rooftops (Towards Mont Saint Victoire) by Arthur Alexander Ballard. The price achieved of GBP 960.00 (€ 1,405.33) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, View Over The Paris Rooftops (Towards Mont Saint Victoire) is the most expensive artwork by Arthur Alexander Ballard that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juli 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion 20th Century British Art including The Studio of Humphrey Jennings durch, in der auch die Arbeit View Over The Paris Rooftops (Towards Mont Saint Victoire) von Arthur Alexander Ballard zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 960,00 (€ 1.405,33) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist View Over The Paris Rooftops (Towards Mont Saint Victoire) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Arthur Alexander Ballard, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
