Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Amphitheatre of "El Gem", Regency of Tunis by Frederick Catherwood was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2005. The price achieved of GBP 960.00 (€ 1,408.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frederick Catherwood achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work General view of Kabah (Yucatán) in September 2005 with an auction result of GBP 38,400.00 (€ 56,354.82).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Amphitheatre of "El Gem", Regency of Tunis von Frederick Catherwood kam im September 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 960,00 (€ 1.408,87) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frederick Catherwood erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit General view of Kabah (Yucatán) im September 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 38.400,00 (€ 56.354,82).
