Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2009 Sothebys in London held the auction 19th Century European Paintings including German, Austrian & Central European Paintings, The Orientalist Sale, Spanish Painting and The Scandinavian Sale, which included the work British The Palace Guard by Edwin Long. It changed hands for a price of GBP 115,250.00 (€ 135,242.01) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Admittedly, works by Edwin Long have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work An Ancient Custom in May 2000 with an auction result of USD 776,000.00 (€ 831,903.95).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2009 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion 19th Century European Paintings including German, Austrian & Central European Paintings, The Orientalist Sale, Spanish Painting and The Scandinavian Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit British The Palace Guard von Edwin Long zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 115.250,00 (€ 135.242,01) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 80.000,00 – 120.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Edwin Long auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit An Ancient Custom im Mai 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 776.000,00 (€ 831.903,95).
