Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Challenge: Fairies Confronting A Medieval Knight by Charles Cattermole was sold in the British and Continental Watercolours auction at Christies in London in September 2004. The price achieved of GBP 262.90 (€ 383.01) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 200.00 – 400.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Cattermole - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Royalist cavalry on the road, which sold at auction in March 2001 for GBP 528.75 (€ 853.19).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Challenge: Fairies Confronting A Medieval Knight von Charles Cattermole wurde im September 2004 in der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 262,90 (€ 383,01) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 200,00 – 400,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Charles Cattermole mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Royalist cavalry on the road beobachtet, die im März 2001 für GBP 528,75 (€ 853,19) versteigert wurde.
