Auction result well in line with expectations

In September 2008 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work Sweet; and Bitter by Emily Farmer. The price achieved of GBP 875.00 (€ 1,106.35) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00. Admittedly, works by Emily Farmer have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Little Seamstress in March 2007 with an auction result of GBP 5,760.00 (€ 8,478.06).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im September 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sweet; and Bitter von Emily Farmer zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 875,00 (€ 1.106,35) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Emily Farmer auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Little Seamstress im März 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.760,00 (€ 8.478,06).
