Auction result misses estimated price range
In June 2005 a collector was able to acquire the work An Illustration With Cupid by George Cruikshank for GBP 120.00 (€ 177.85). This price was achieved in the auction British and Continental Watercolours at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 200.00 – 300.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Cruikshank achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Study for 'The Highland Whisky-Still' in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 7,409.00 (€ 10,816.91).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juni 2005 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit An Illustration With Cupid von George Cruikshank für GBP 120,00 (€ 177,85) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 200,00 – 300,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Cruikshank erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Study for 'The Highland Whisky-Still' im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.409,00 (€ 10.816,91).
