In May 2005 Christies in London held the auction British Prints 1850-2004, which included the work Memory of Clavering (C. 51iii) by Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,080.00 (€ 1,594.42), 54% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Almonry (C. 34v), which sold at auction in May 2005 for GBP 2,280.00 (€ 3,366.00).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 54 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2005 führte Christies in London die Auktion British Prints 1850-2004 durch, in der auch die Arbeit Memory of Clavering (C. 51iii) von Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.080,00 (€ 1.594,42) und damit 54% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Almonry (C. 34v) beobachtet, die im Mai 2005 für GBP 2.280,00 (€ 3.366,00) versteigert wurde.
