Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Portrait of Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor (1685-1740), full-length by Georg Philipp Rugendas was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2012, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,273.73). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Georg Philipp Rugendas - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A cavalry engagement, which sold at auction in April 2001 for GBP 2,937.50 (€ 4,735.62).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Portrait of Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor (1685-1740), full-length von Georg Philipp Rugendas im Juli 2012 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.273,73) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Georg Philipp Rugendas mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A cavalry engagement beobachtet, die im April 2001 für GBP 2.937,50 (€ 4.735,62) versteigert wurde.
