Auction result well in line with expectations

The work The road from Valparaíso to Santiago by Ernest Charton was sold in the Exploration and Travel including the Polar Sale auction at Christies in London in September 2010. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 70,000.00 – 100,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 70,850.00 (€ 81,945.54) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ernest Charton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Panorama of the City of Valparaíso, Chile, which sold at auction in October 2015 for GBP 206,500.00 (€ 288,841.92).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit The road from Valparaíso to Santiago von Ernest Charton wurde im September 2010 in der Auktion Exploration and Travel including the Polar Sale bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 70.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 70.850,00 (€ 81.945,54) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Ernest Charton mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Panorama of the City of Valparaíso, Chile beobachtet, die im Oktober 2015 für GBP 206.500,00 (€ 288.841,92) versteigert wurde.
