This artwork by Charles Collins achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in July 2014. In the Old Master & British Drawings auction, the work Eight Watercolours Of Birds sold for GBP 10,625.00 (€ 13,401.47) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Collins achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Ornamental Birds In A Landscape, A Set Of Three in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 89,150.00 (€ 137,894.86).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles Collins erzielte im Juli 2014 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master & British Drawings wurde die Arbeit Eight Watercolours Of Birds für GBP 10.625,00 (€ 13.401,47) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Collins erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Ornamental Birds In A Landscape, A Set Of Three im Juni 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 89.150,00 (€ 137.894,86).
