Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Frederick Smallfield could be acquired at Christies in London in November 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Continental Watercolours auction, the work The Accordian Player changed hands for GBP 228.00 (€ 338.59) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frederick Smallfield achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An Arab smoking a shilbouck (recto); An old Lady seated in a garden (verso) in June 2012 with an auction result of GBP 10,000.00 (€ 12,382.38).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Frederick Smallfield konnte im November 2006 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours wechselte die Arbeit The Accordian Player für GBP 228,00 (€ 338,59) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frederick Smallfield erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An Arab smoking a shilbouck (recto); An old Lady seated in a garden (verso) im Juni 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 10.000,00 (€ 12.382,38).
