A top price for George Clare - as previously expected
In May 2002 Christies in London held the auction British and Victorian Pictures, which included the work Strawberries, apples, plums, and grapes in a wicker basket, on a mossy bank by George Clare. The price achieved of GBP 6,462.50 (€ 10,120.36) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Strawberries, apples, plums, and grapes in a wicker basket, on a mossy bank is the most expensive artwork by George Clare that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Mai 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Victorian Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Strawberries, apples, plums, and grapes in a wicker basket, on a mossy bank von George Clare zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.462,50 (€ 10.120,36) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Strawberries, apples, plums, and grapes in a wicker basket, on a mossy bank das teuerste Kunstwerk von George Clare, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
