This artwork by Daniel Maclise achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in November 2008. In the A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation auction, the work Portrait Of John Francis Maguire (1815-1872), Irish Politician And Journalist sold for GBP 6,000.00 (€ 7,254.45) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 100 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Daniel Maclise erzielte im November 2008 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation wurde die Arbeit Portrait Of John Francis Maguire (1815-1872), Irish Politician And Journalist für GBP 6.000,00 (€ 7.254,45) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00. 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).
