A top price for Benjamin Barker of Bath - as previously expected
The work A wooded landscape with figures on a track, a bridge beyond by Benjamin Barker of Bath was sold in the Old Masters & British Paintings auction at Christies in London in May 2012. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,787.23) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A wooded landscape with figures on a track, a bridge beyond is the most expensive artwork by Benjamin Barker of Bath that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 6.250,00 (€ 7.787,23) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist A wooded landscape with figures on a track, a bridge beyond das teuerste Kunstwerk von Benjamin Barker of Bath, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
