Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2002 Christies in London held the auction BRITISH PICTURES 1500-1850, which included the work Portrait Of Margaret, Lady Heath, Wife Of Sir Robert Heath, Half-Length, In A Black Dress With Slashed Sleeves And A White Ruff, With A Rope Of Pearls by Cornelius Johnson. The price achieved of GBP 11,950.00 (€ 18,483.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Admittedly, works by Cornelius Johnson 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 Thomas, 1St Baron Coventry (1578-1640), Lord Keeper Of The Great Seal in May 2020 with an auction result of GBP 87,500.00 (€ 97,134.62).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion BRITISH PICTURES 1500-1850 durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Margaret, Lady Heath, Wife Of Sir Robert Heath, Half-Length, In A Black Dress With Slashed Sleeves And A White Ruff, With A Rope Of Pearls von Cornelius Johnson zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 11.950,00 (€ 18.483,94) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Cornelius Johnson auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait Of Thomas, 1St Baron Coventry (1578-1640), Lord Keeper Of The Great Seal im Mai 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 87.500,00 (€ 97.134,62).
