Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2018 Christies in London held the auction Victorian Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, which included the work Two polo scenes: Going for the ball; and At the goal by Donald Grant. The price achieved of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,708.39) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Donald Grant - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Cheetah and her Cubs, which sold at auction in December 2005 for USD 28,800.00 (€ 24,320.22).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2018 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Two polo scenes: Going for the ball; and At the goal von Donald Grant zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.708,39) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Donald Grant mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Cheetah and her Cubs beobachtet, die im Dezember 2005 für USD 28.800,00 (€ 24.320,22) versteigert wurde.
