Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Study For "Rottingdean" by Charles Ginner was auctioned at Sothebys in London in September 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,388.94). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Ginner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Corner in Chelsea in December 2012 with an auction result of GBP 79,250.00 (€ 97,737.26).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Study For "Rottingdean" von Charles Ginner im September 2017 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 4.750,00 (€ 5.388,94) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Ginner erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Corner in Chelsea im Dezember 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 79.250,00 (€ 97.737,26).
