Upper estimate price exceeded by 37 %.
The work ‘Thou hast the sunset’s glow, Rome, for thy dower, Flushing the cypress tree, Temple and tower’ by Edward William Cooke was auctioned at Christies in London in May last year. It achieved a price of GBP 16,380.00 (€ 19,269.51), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 37%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward William Cooke achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bella Venezia in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 209,600.00 (€ 311,262.56).

Die Arbeit ‘Thou hast the sunset’s glow, Rome, for thy dower, Flushing the cypress tree, Temple and tower’ von Edward William Cooke kam im Mai letzten Jahres bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 16.380,00 (€ 19.269,51) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 37%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward William Cooke erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bella Venezia im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 209.600,00 (€ 311.262,56).
