Despite a disappointment, a good price for George Brookshaw
When the work Four Handcolored Aquatints From: Pomonica Britannica, A Collection Of The Most Esteemed Fruits by George Brookshaw was auctioned at Christies in New York in January 2001, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 5,000.00 – 8,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 4,935.00 (€ 5,301.89). Despite this disappointing result, Four Handcolored Aquatints From: Pomonica Britannica, A Collection Of The Most Esteemed Fruits is the most expensive artwork by George Brookshaw that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für George Brookshaw
Als die Arbeit Four Handcolored Aquatints From: Pomonica Britannica, A Collection Of The Most Esteemed Fruits von George Brookshaw im Januar 2001 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 5.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 4.935,00 (€ 5.301,89) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Four Handcolored Aquatints From: Pomonica Britannica, A Collection Of The Most Esteemed Fruits das teuerste Kunstwerk von George Brookshaw, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
