Auction result misses estimated price range

In October 2020 a collector was able to acquire the work The Reception In The Kitchen Of The News Of Master Bobby Shandy’S Death by Edward Bird for USD 2,375.00 (€ 2,039.15). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master Paintings and Sculpture at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Bird achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The departure to London in March 2000 with an auction result of GBP 18,400.00 (€ 30,600.04).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im Oktober 2020 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Reception In The Kitchen Of The News Of Master Bobby Shandy’S Death von Edward Bird für USD 2.375,00 (€ 2.039,15) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master Paintings and Sculpture bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Bird erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The departure to London im März 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.400,00 (€ 30.600,04).
