Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A British warship in three positions in the Channel by Francis Swaine was sold in the Old Masters Part II: Paintings, Sculpture, Drawings and Watercolours auction at Christies in London in December this year. The price achieved of GBP 12,600.00 (€ 14,514.72) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francis Swaine - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An English Squadron In St Aubin'S Bay, Jersey, which sold at auction in December 2006 for GBP 28,800.00 (€ 42,742.81).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 12.600,00 (€ 14.514,72) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Francis Swaine mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An English Squadron In St Aubin'S Bay, Jersey beobachtet, die im Dezember 2006 für GBP 28.800,00 (€ 42.742,81) versteigert wurde.
