A top price for Basil Ede - as previously expected
In December 2005 Christies in New York held the auction Sporting Art, which included the work Lagopus scoticus - Red Grouse in a Highland Landscape by Basil Ede. The result of USD 6,000.00 (€ 5,066.71) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Lagopus scoticus - Red Grouse in a Highland Landscape is the most expensive artwork by Basil Ede that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Dezember 2005 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Sporting Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Lagopus scoticus - Red Grouse in a Highland Landscape von Basil Ede zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 6.000,00 (€ 5.066,71) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Lagopus scoticus - Red Grouse in a Highland Landscape das teuerste Kunstwerk von Basil Ede, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
