Despite a disappointment, a good price for Edward John Gregory
When the work Rediviva: Great-Grandmother'S Wedding Dress by Edward John Gregory was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2005, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 14,400.00 (€ 21,341.71). Despite this disappointing result, Rediviva: Great-Grandmother'S Wedding Dress is the most expensive artwork by Edward John Gregory that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Edward John Gregory
Als die Arbeit Rediviva: Great-Grandmother'S Wedding Dress von Edward John Gregory im Juni 2005 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 14.400,00 (€ 21.341,71) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Rediviva: Great-Grandmother'S Wedding Dress das teuerste Kunstwerk von Edward John Gregory, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
