Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Pompeii by Arthur Perigal Jnr. was sold in the British & Continental Watercolours including Original Book auction at Christies in London in December 2003. The price achieved of GBP 258.50 (€ 366.13) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 200.00 – 300.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Arthur Perigal Jnr. achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work On the Tweed at Nesbitt in March 2004 with an auction result of GBP 7,767.50 (€ 11,627.24).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Pompeii von Arthur Perigal Jnr. wurde im Dezember 2003 in der Auktion British & Continental Watercolours including Original Book bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 258,50 (€ 366,13) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 200,00 – 300,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Arthur Perigal Jnr. erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit On the Tweed at Nesbitt im März 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.767,50 (€ 11.627,24).
