Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2011 Christies in London held the auction Victorian & British Impressionist Art, which included the work The Thames at Westminster by Colin W. Burns. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 6,000.00 (€ 7,004.39), 20% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Colin W. Burns have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Woodcock And Pheasant Driven Of The Covert, Thetford, Norfolk in June 2001 with an auction result of USD 35,250.00 (€ 41,597.83).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im November 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Thames at Westminster von Colin W. Burns zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 7.004,39) und damit 20% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Colin W. Burns auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Woodcock And Pheasant Driven Of The Covert, Thetford, Norfolk im Juni 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 35.250,00 (€ 41.597,83).
