Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Rugby League Cup Final by Charles Burton was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2012, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,375.00 (€ 1,709.57). Other works by Charles Burton have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in October 2012 by the work Wimbledon at GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,419.14).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Rugby League Cup Final von Charles Burton im Oktober 2012 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.375,00 (€ 1.709,57) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Charles Burton wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Oktober 2012 die Arbeit Wimbledon mit GBP 2.750,00 (€ 3.419,14).
