Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2003 Christies in London held the auction British Art on Paper, which included the work Margaret (Alone at her Spinning Wheel) "My heart's oppresse My peace is o'er I know no rest, No, nevermore..." Goethe, Faust, Act I. by Frank Cadogan Cowper. The price achieved of GBP 23,900.00 (€ 34,308.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frank Cadogan Cowper achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Our Lady of the Fruits of the Earth in December 2011 with an auction result of GBP 469,250.00 (€ 561,993.16).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2003 führte Christies in London die Auktion British Art on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit Margaret (Alone at her Spinning Wheel) "My heart's oppresse My peace is o'er I know no rest, No, nevermore..." Goethe, Faust, Act I. von Frank Cadogan Cowper zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 23.900,00 (€ 34.308,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frank Cadogan Cowper erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Our Lady of the Fruits of the Earth im Dezember 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 469.250,00 (€ 561.993,16).
