Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Duntisbourne Rouse (C. 37vii) by Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2005, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 350.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 2,040.00 (€ 3,011.68). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The Almonry (C. 34v) sold at auction in May 2005 with the realized price of GBP 2,280.00 (€ 3,366.00).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Duntisbourne Rouse (C. 37vii) von Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs im Mai 2005 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 350,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 2.040,00 (€ 3.011,68) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit The Almonry (C. 34v) im Mai 2005 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 2.280,00 (€ 3.366,00).
