Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2004 Christies in London held the auction Sporting Art and Dogs, which included the work Lord Lonsdale jumping the Great Dalby Brook by Basil Nightingale. The price achieved of GBP 956.00 (€ 1,422.81) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Basil Nightingale achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Breaking Cover in June 2013 with an auction result of GBP 17,500.00 (€ 20,425.63).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion Sporting Art and Dogs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Lord Lonsdale jumping the Great Dalby Brook von Basil Nightingale zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 956,00 (€ 1.422,81) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Basil Nightingale erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Breaking Cover im Juni 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 17.500,00 (€ 20.425,63).
