Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale, which included the work Portrait Of John Petrie And His Wife Anne (Nèe Keble) And Three Of Their Children, Their Ayah And A Musician. by Arthur William Devis. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 81,250.00 (€ 73,244.39) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Arthur William Devis - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of the children of Benjamin Goldsmid, with a pony and a dog in a landscape, which sold at auction in May last year for GBP 201,600.00 (€ 237,163.21).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Januar 2020 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of John Petrie And His Wife Anne (Nèe Keble) And Three Of Their Children, Their Ayah And A Musician. von Arthur William Devis zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 81.250,00 (€ 73.244,39) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Arthur William Devis mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of the children of Benjamin Goldsmid, with a pony and a dog in a landscape beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für GBP 201.600,00 (€ 237.163,21) versteigert wurde.
