Sold at the lower estimate price
In December 2007 Christies in London held the auction British & Continental Watercolours & Drawings, which included the work A Symbol Of Love by Edward Killingworth Johnson. The result of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 2,038.25) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edward Killingworth Johnson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Trysting Place, which sold at auction in November 2000 for GBP 4,700.00 (€ 7,681.96).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British & Continental Watercolours & Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Symbol Of Love von Edward Killingworth Johnson zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.500,00 (€ 2.038,25) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Edward Killingworth Johnson mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Trysting Place beobachtet, die im November 2000 für GBP 4.700,00 (€ 7.681,96) versteigert wurde.
