Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Charles Robertson, R.W.S. achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in June 2005. In the British Art on Paper auction, the work The Edge of The North Sea sold for GBP 7,800.00 (€ 11,560.09) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Robertson, R.W.S. achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Street of the Ghoreeyah, Cairo in October 2020 with an auction result of GBP 150,062.50 (€ 166,631.61).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles Robertson, R.W.S. erzielte im Juni 2005 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion British Art on Paper wurde die Arbeit The Edge of The North Sea für GBP 7.800,00 (€ 11.560,09) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Robertson, R.W.S. erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Street of the Ghoreeyah, Cairo im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 150.062,50 (€ 166.631,61).
