Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A Lady Called Mrs Merry, In White Dress With Frilled Collar And Blue Sash, Blue Bandeau In Her Powdered Curling Hair; Sky Background by Edward Miles was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,504.21). Admittedly, works by Edward Miles have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A gentleman facing right in grey coat with brass buttons, white waistcoat and frilled cravat, powdered hair en queue; and his young son, facing right in white shirt with large frilled collar and red jacket, curling fair hair (by Thomas Hull) in April 2002 with an auction result of GBP 4,935.00 (€ 7,984.70).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A Lady Called Mrs Merry, In White Dress With Frilled Collar And Blue Sash, Blue Bandeau In Her Powdered Curling Hair; Sky Background von Edward Miles im November 2013 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.504,21) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Edward Miles auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A gentleman facing right in grey coat with brass buttons, white waistcoat and frilled cravat, powdered hair en queue; and his young son, facing right in white shirt with large frilled collar and red jacket, curling fair hair (by Thomas Hull) im April 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GB
