Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work The Baptistry, Siena Cathedral, 1891 by Charles Rennie Mackintosh was auctioned at Bonhams in Edinburgh in May last year. It achieved a price of GBP 14,025.00 (€ 16,499.08), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 17%. Admittedly, works by Charles Rennie Mackintosh have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Hill Town in Southern France in October 2004 with an auction result of GBP 94,850.00 (€ 136,515.24).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit The Baptistry, Siena Cathedral, 1891 von Charles Rennie Mackintosh kam im Mai letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Edinburgh zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 14.025,00 (€ 16.499,08) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 17%. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Charles Rennie Mackintosh auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Hill Town in Southern France im Oktober 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 94.850,00 (€ 136.515,24).
