Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March 2002 Christies in London held the auction British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures, which included the work Portrait of Hope Calthrop, seated bust-length, in a white dress by Claude Andrew Calthrop. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 822.50 (€ 1,344.57), 18% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Claude Andrew Calthrop have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait of Louise Calthrop, seated three-quarter-length, in a black dress in March 2002 with an auction result of GBP 3,525.00 (€ 5,762.45).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im März 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Hope Calthrop, seated bust-length, in a white dress von Claude Andrew Calthrop zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 822,50 (€ 1.344,57) und damit 18% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Claude Andrew Calthrop auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait of Louise Calthrop, seated three-quarter-length, in a black dress im März 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.525,00 (€ 5.762,45).
