Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Frigates becalmed near the shore, firing a salute by Charles Brooking was auctioned at Christies in July this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 25,200.00 (€ 29,400.76) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Brooking - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Men-O'-War Reefed-Down And Riding Out A Gale, which sold at auction in June 2014 for GBP 68,500.00 (€ 85,587.47).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Frigates becalmed near the shore, firing a salute von Charles Brooking kam im Juli diesen Jahres bei Christies zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 25.200,00 (€ 29.400,76) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Charles Brooking mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Men-O'-War Reefed-Down And Riding Out A Gale beobachtet, die im Juni 2014 für GBP 68.500,00 (€ 85.587,47) versteigert wurde.
