Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2021 Sothebys in London held the auction European & British Art, which included the work Study for Elijah in the Wilderness by Frederic Leighton. It changed hands for a price of GBP 32,760.00 (€ 39,075.81) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 26,000.00 – 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frederic Leighton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Golden Hours in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 3,274,500.00 (€ 3,930,468.55).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2021 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion European & British Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Study for Elijah in the Wilderness von Frederic Leighton zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 32.760,00 (€ 39.075,81) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 26.000,00 – 35.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frederic Leighton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Golden Hours im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.274.500,00 (€ 3.930.468,55).
