Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2004 Christies in London held the auction Maritime Pictures, which included the work Yachts under spinnakers in the tidal gate off Hurst Castle by Deryck Foster. The price achieved of GBP 418.25 (€ 627.53) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Admittedly, works by Deryck Foster have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work British Rafales in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 4,063.00 (€ 2,766.20).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion Maritime Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Yachts under spinnakers in the tidal gate off Hurst Castle von Deryck Foster zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 418,25 (€ 627,53) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Deryck Foster auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit British Rafales im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 4.063,00 (€ 2.766,20).
