Sold at the lower estimate price
In July 2007 Christies in London held the auction British and Continental Watercolours and Original Book Illustrations, which included the work Interior of Gloucester Cathedral by Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin. The result of GBP 600.00 (€ 891.14) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A folio of fourteen studies and designs and decorations for furniture and metalwork, which sold at auction in June 2003 for GBP 2,151.00 (€ 3,091.10).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Juli 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Continental Watercolours and Original Book Illustrations durch, in der auch die Arbeit Interior of Gloucester Cathedral von Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 600,00 (€ 891,14) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A folio of fourteen studies and designs and decorations for furniture and metalwork beobachtet, die im Juni 2003 für GBP 2.151,00 (€ 3.091,10) versteigert wurde.
