Sold at the lower estimate price
The work A Hampshire ferry by Charles James Lewis was sold in the Victorian & British Impressionist Art auction at Christies in London in July 2012. The result of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 6,368.66) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles James Lewis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Woodland Ramble "When daisies pied and violets blue And Lady-smocks all silver white, and cuckoo buds of yellow hue" - William Shakespeare, Love's Labour's Lost, Act V, Scene 2 in November 2007 with an auction result of GBP 48,500.00 (€ 67,912.55).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit A Hampshire ferry von Charles James Lewis wurde im Juli 2012 in der Auktion Victorian & British Impressionist Art bei Christies in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 6.368,66) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles James Lewis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Woodland Ramble "When daisies pied and violets blue And Lady-smocks all silver white, and cuckoo buds of yellow hue" - William Shakespeare, Love's Labour's Lost, Act V, Scene 2 im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 48.500,00 (€ 67.912,55).
