Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2002 Christies in London held the auction British and Victorian Pictures, which included the work The first steps by Charles Landseer. The price achieved of GBP 2,350.00 (€ 3,734.69) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Landseer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Return of the Dove to the Ark in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 133,150.00 (€ 194,394.80).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Victorian Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit The first steps von Charles Landseer zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.350,00 (€ 3.734,69) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Landseer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Return of the Dove to the Ark im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 133.150,00 (€ 194.394,80).
