Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by George French Angas achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in September 2007. In the Exploration and Travel auction, the work Gold digging, Summer Hill, N.S. Wales, 1851 sold for GBP 11,875.00 (€ 17,027.88) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George French Angas achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Eaglehawk Gully, Bendigo, 1852 in November 2020 with an auction result of AUD 418,200.00 (€ 350,016.74).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von George French Angas erzielte im September 2007 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Exploration and Travel wurde die Arbeit Gold digging, Summer Hill, N.S. Wales, 1851 für GBP 11.875,00 (€ 17.027,88) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George French Angas erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Eaglehawk Gully, Bendigo, 1852 im November 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 418.200,00 (€ 350.016,74).
