Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2014 Sothebys in London held the auction 19th Century European Paintings, which included the work Greek pyrophani - Firefishing by Constantinos Volanakis. The price achieved of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 32,183.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Constantinos Volanakis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Greek The Arrival Of Karaiskakis At Faliro in November 2008 with an auction result of GBP 1,609,250.00 (€ 1,945,704.19).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2014 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion 19th Century European Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Greek pyrophani - Firefishing von Constantinos Volanakis zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 32.183,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Constantinos Volanakis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Greek The Arrival Of Karaiskakis At Faliro im November 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.609.250,00 (€ 1.945.704,19).
