Arthur von Ferraris (b.1856)
A nymph lying in a wooded river landscape

oil on canvas
28¼ x 35¾ in. (71.7 x 90.7 cm.)

Auction result well in line with expectations

In February 2000 Christies in London held the auction British and Continental Pictures, which included the work A nymph lying in a wooded river landscape by Arthur von Ferraris. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 632.50 (€ 1,035.04) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Arthur von Ferraris achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Austrian Driving A Bargain, Cairo  in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 1,049,000.00 (€ 673,818.09).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Februar 2000 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Continental Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit A nymph lying in a wooded river landscape von Arthur von Ferraris zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 632,50 (€ 1.035,04) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Arthur von Ferraris erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Austrian Driving A Bargain, Cairo  im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.049.000,00 (€ 673.818,09).
