Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Gentleman Seated At A Desk, View From Behind by Charles Keene was auctioned at Christies in New York in April 2005, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 600.00 – 800.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 180.00 (€ 139.33). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Keene achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Cockney Boy; And A Coachman in June 2006 with an auction result of GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,083.66).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Gentleman Seated At A Desk, View From Behind von Charles Keene im April 2005 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 180,00 (€ 139,33) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Keene erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Cockney Boy; And A Coachman im Juni 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.440,00 (€ 2.083,66).
