Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Frank Cadogan Cowper could be acquired at Christies in London in March 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Continental Watercolours auction, the work Portrait of a lady, half-length, in a green dress changed hands for GBP 59.75 (€ 89.44) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 200.00 – 300.00. 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 verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Frank Cadogan Cowper konnte im März 2004 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours wechselte die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, half-length, in a green dress für GBP 59,75 (€ 89,44) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 200,00 – 300,00. 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).
