Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2009 Sothebys in Melbourne held the auction The Ken and Rona Eastaugh Collection, which included the work Australian Waiting On The Stile And Saved From Drowning by Ebenezer Wake Cook. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of AUD 400.00 – 600.00, the actual price achieved of AUD 420.00 (€ 237.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ebenezer Wake Cook achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Elaine in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 3,840.00 (€ 5,702.52).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2009 führte Sothebys in Melbourne die Auktion The Ken and Rona Eastaugh Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Australian Waiting On The Stile And Saved From Drowning von Ebenezer Wake Cook zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von AUD 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von AUD 420,00 (€ 237,65) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ebenezer Wake Cook erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Elaine im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.840,00 (€ 5.702,52).
