Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2019 Christies in London held the auction Prints & Multiples, which included the work Commander looking through the Periscope , from: Submarine Series by Eric Ravilious. The price achieved of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 6,347.15) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eric Ravilious achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Aldeburgh Bathing Machines in November 2016 with an auction result of GBP 269,000.00 (€ 317,393.55).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit Commander looking through the Periscope , from: Submarine Series von Eric Ravilious zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.625,00 (€ 6.347,15) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Eric Ravilious erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Aldeburgh Bathing Machines im November 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 269.000,00 (€ 317.393,55).
