Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2006 Christies in London held the auction Prints and Multiples, which included the work The Cresset (Comstock 12ii) by Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs. The price achieved of GBP 540.00 (€ 806.81) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Admittedly, works by Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Almonry (C. 34v) in May 2005 with an auction result of GBP 2,280.00 (€ 3,366.00).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion Prints and Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Cresset (Comstock 12ii) von Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 540,00 (€ 806,81) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Frederick Landseer Maur Griggs auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Almonry (C. 34v) im Mai 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.280,00 (€ 3.366,00).
