Auction result misses estimated price range
In July last year a collector was able to acquire the work The Needles from Alum Bay, Isle of Wight, at Sunset by George Barret the Younger for GBP 1,100.00 (€ 1,313.60). This price was achieved in the auction Old Master and British Works on Paper: Drawings, Watercolours and Prints 1500-1900 at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by George Barret the Younger have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Solitude: An Italianate Landscape With A Figure Reclining Beneath Trees in July 2017 with an auction result of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 6,695.08).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juli letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Needles from Alum Bay, Isle of Wight, at Sunset von George Barret the Younger für GBP 1.100,00 (€ 1.313,60) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Old Master and British Works on Paper: Drawings, Watercolours and Prints 1500-1900 bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von George Barret the Younger auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Solitude: An Italianate Landscape With A Figure Reclining Beneath Trees im Juli 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 6.695,08).
