Richmond Bridge
signed 'CECIL KING' (lower left)
pencil and watercolour
13¾ x 20¼ in. (35 x 51.4 cm.)

Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Richmond Bridge by Cecil King was sold in the British and Continental Watercolours and Drawings auction at Christies in London in October 2002. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 446.50 (€ 706.28) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Cecil King achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Intrusion 1972 in October 2006 with an auction result of GBP 10,200.00 (€ 15,239.71).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Richmond Bridge von Cecil King wurde im Oktober 2002 in der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours and Drawings bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 446,50 (€ 706,28) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Cecil King erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Intrusion 1972 im Oktober 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 10.200,00 (€ 15.239,71).
