Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Charles James Folkard could be acquired at Christies in London in March 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Continental Watercolours auction, the work A Scene From The 'Merchant of Venice'; On The Quayside changed hands for GBP 360.00 (€ 515.82) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Admittedly, works by Charles James Folkard have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Illustrations to Richard Harris Barham's Jackdaw of Rheims: All a-whisper; Bearing gifts; In a hurry; and An uncomfortable shoe (two illustrated) in December 2005 with an auction result of GBP 2,640.00 (€ 3,831.81).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles James Folkard konnte im März 2006 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours wechselte die Arbeit A Scene From The 'Merchant of Venice'; On The Quayside für GBP 360,00 (€ 515,82) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Charles James Folkard auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Illustrations to Richard Harris Barham's Jackdaw of Rheims: All a-whisper; Bearing gifts; In a hurry; and An uncomfortable shoe (two illustrated) im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.640,00 (€ 3.831,81).
