Auction result well in line with expectations

In June 2011 Christies in London held the auction Victorian & British Impressionist Art, which included the work The Swing by Edward Henry Corbould. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 4,375.00 (€ 4,840.12) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edward Henry Corbould - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Cold, which sold at auction in February 2003 for GBP 11,950.00 (€ 17,446.62).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Juni 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Swing von Edward Henry Corbould zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 4.375,00 (€ 4.840,12) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Edward Henry Corbould mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Cold beobachtet, die im Februar 2003 für GBP 11.950,00 (€ 17.446,62) versteigert wurde.
