In June 2006 Christies in London held the auction British Art on Paper Including 'The Blue Rigi' by J.M.W. Turner, R.A., which included the work With The Wind by Edward Robert Hughes. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 13,200.00 (€ 19,100.18), 65% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Robert Hughes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work British Dream Idyll (A Valkyrie) in October 2009 with an auction result of USD 866,500.00 (€ 587,258.56).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 65 % übertroffen
Im Juni 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion British Art on Paper Including 'The Blue Rigi' by J.M.W. Turner, R.A. durch, in der auch die Arbeit With The Wind von Edward Robert Hughes zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 13.200,00 (€ 19.100,18) und damit 65% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Robert Hughes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit British Dream Idyll (A Valkyrie) im Oktober 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 866.500,00 (€ 587.258,56).
