Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Near Dolgellau, North Wales by George Cole was sold in the Victorian & Traditionalist Pictures auction at Christies in London in November 2006. The result of GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,730.56) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 18,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Cole - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Carting the Ripe Harvest, Coombe, which sold at auction in May 2000 for USD 84,600.00 (€ 90,694.68).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Near Dolgellau, North Wales von George Cole wurde im November 2006 in der Auktion Victorian & Traditionalist Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 18.000,00 (€ 26.730,56) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 18.000,00 – 25.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von George Cole mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Carting the Ripe Harvest, Coombe beobachtet, die im Mai 2000 für USD 84.600,00 (€ 90.694,68) versteigert wurde.
