Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Charles Vacher could be acquired at Sothebys in London in December 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Early British Drawings, Watercolours and Portrait Miniatures auction, the work Travellers Before The Pyramids, Egypt changed hands for GBP 1,625.00 (€ 1,706.72) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 4,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Vacher achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Fête of The Marriage of The Adriatic, Venice in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 60,000.00 (€ 89,036.98).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles Vacher konnte im Dezember 2008 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Early British Drawings, Watercolours and Portrait Miniatures wechselte die Arbeit Travellers Before The Pyramids, Egypt für GBP 1.625,00 (€ 1.706,72) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 4.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Vacher erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Fête of The Marriage of The Adriatic, Venice im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 60.000,00 (€ 89.036,98).
