Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work An angler by a Highland stream, possibly in the Trossachs by George Blackie Sticks was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2004, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 300.00 – 400.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 286.80 (€ 429.31). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Blackie Sticks achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Glenfinlas, Brigg of Turk in October 2006 with an auction result of GBP 7,800.00 (€ 11,653.89).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit An angler by a Highland stream, possibly in the Trossachs von George Blackie Sticks im März 2004 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 300,00 – 400,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 286,80 (€ 429,31) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Blackie Sticks erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Glenfinlas, Brigg of Turk im Oktober 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.800,00 (€ 11.653,89).
