Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait Of Lady Henrietta Conyers, Née Fermor (1727-1793) by Francis Cotes was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2015. It changed hands for a price of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 7,974.36) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francis Cotes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Master Smith, full-length, in a mauve coat and breeches, his right hand resting on a kite, in a landscape in July 2014 with an auction result of GBP 422,500.00 (€ 532,905.34).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait Of Lady Henrietta Conyers, Née Fermor (1727-1793) von Francis Cotes kam im Juli 2015 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 5.625,00 (€ 7.974,36) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Francis Cotes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Master Smith, full-length, in a mauve coat and breeches, his right hand resting on a kite, in a landscape im Juli 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 422.500,00 (€ 532.905,34).
