Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Largo harbour; Anstruther; and Stonehaven harbour by David Martin was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2003. It changed hands for a price of GBP 1,175.00 (€ 1,702.13) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Martin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of James, 3rd Earl of Hopetoun (1741-1817), three-quarter-length, in a cream suit, seated at a desk reading; and Portrait of his wife, Lady Elizabeth Carnegie, Countess of Hopetoun (d. 1793), three-quarter-length, in a blue dress, seated wit in October 2001 with an auction result of USD 23,500.00 (€ 26,131.4
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Largo harbour; Anstruther; and Stonehaven harbour von David Martin kam im März 2003 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 1.175,00 (€ 1.702,13) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Martin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of James, 3rd Earl of Hopetoun (1741-1817), three-quarter-length, in a cream suit, seated at a desk reading; and Portrait of his wife, Lady Elizabeth Carnegie, Countess of Hopetoun (d. 1793), three-quarter-length, in a blue dress, seated wit im Oktober 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 23.500,00 (€ 26.131,44).
