Sold at the lower estimate price
In December 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction Early British Drawings, Watercolours and Portrait Miniatures, which included the work A Sketching Party In Leigh Woods, Near Bristol by Francis Danby. The result of GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,201.16) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate 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 Danby achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A view of the Avon at Clifton, Bristol in July 2014 with an auction result of GBP 110,500.00 (€ 139,375.24).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Early British Drawings, Watercolours and Portrait Miniatures durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Sketching Party In Leigh Woods, Near Bristol von Francis Danby zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.201,16) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende 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 Danby erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A view of the Avon at Clifton, Bristol im Juli 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 110.500,00 (€ 139.375,24).
