Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Portrait Of A Gentleman by Daniel Maclise was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2008, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 875.00 (€ 1,057.94). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Daniel Maclise achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Wrestling Scene in 'As You Like It' in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 314,650.00 (€ 459,379.08).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of A Gentleman von Daniel Maclise im November 2008 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 875,00 (€ 1.057,94) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Daniel Maclise erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Wrestling Scene in 'As You Like It' im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 314.650,00 (€ 459.379,08).
