Price realised: 25.000 GBP

Description

Eric Ravilious (1903-1943)
Road by an Airfield
pencil and watercolour
18¼ x 22¼ in. (46.3 x 56.5 cm.)
Executed circa 1942.

Sold at the lower estimate price

In December 2008 Christies in London held the auction 20th Century British Art, which included the work Road by an Airfield by Eric Ravilious. The result of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 26,257.27) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. 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).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Im Dezember 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion 20th Century British Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Road by an Airfield von Eric Ravilious zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 26.257,27) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00. 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).
