A top price for Clement Drew - as previously expected
The work Ship scudding off Cape Horn by Clement Drew was sold in the Maritime auction at Christies in New York in July 2007. The price achieved of USD 6,600.00 (€ 4,813.65) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Ship scudding off Cape Horn is the most expensive artwork by Clement Drew that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Ship scudding off Cape Horn von Clement Drew wurde im Juli 2007 in der Auktion Maritime bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 6.600,00 (€ 4.813,65) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Ship scudding off Cape Horn das teuerste Kunstwerk von Clement Drew, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
