The work The young fisherboys by George Adolphus Storey was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2002. It achieved a price of GBP 881.25 (€ 1,363.09), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 47%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Adolphus Storey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Orphans in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 71,700.00 (€ 104,679.74).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The young fisherboys von George Adolphus Storey kam im Juni 2002 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 881,25 (€ 1.363,09) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 47%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Adolphus Storey erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Orphans im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 71.700,00 (€ 104.679,74).
