Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Portrait of George, 1st Baron Vernon of Sudbury, Derbyshire (b. 1707-8), three-quarter-length, in a red coat and white waistcoat with gold trim, in a landscape by Charles Philips was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2007. The price achieved of GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,354.32) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Philips - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Group portrait of a family, possibly members of the Vernon family, with a servant, in an elegant interior, which sold at auction in March 2008 for GBP 54,500.00 (€ 68,465.52).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Portrait of George, 1st Baron Vernon of Sudbury, Derbyshire (b. 1707-8), three-quarter-length, in a red coat and white waistcoat with gold trim, in a landscape von Charles Philips kam im April 2007 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 18.000,00 (€ 26.354,32) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Charles Philips mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Group portrait of a family, possibly members of the Vernon family, with a servant, in an elegant interior beobachtet, die im März 2008 für GBP 54.500,00 (€ 68.465,52) versteigert wurde.
