Auction result well in line with expectations
In August 2009 Sothebys in Melbourne held the auction Important Australian Art, which included the work Australian Queen Victoria In Her Coronation Robes by Bertram Mackennal. The price achieved of AUD 4,800.00 (€ 2,822.01) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bertram Mackennal achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Circe, c.1902-04 in November this year with an auction result of AUD 196,800.00 (€ 119,328.49).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im August 2009 führte Sothebys in Melbourne die Auktion Important Australian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Australian Queen Victoria In Her Coronation Robes von Bertram Mackennal zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 4.800,00 (€ 2.822,01) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bertram Mackennal erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Circe, c.1902-04 im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 196.800,00 (€ 119.328,49).
