Despite a disappointment, a good price for George James Knox
When the work On the beach near Blythe by George James Knox was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2003, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 235.00 (€ 343.24). Despite this disappointing result, On the beach near Blythe is the most expensive artwork by George James Knox that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für George James Knox
Als die Arbeit On the beach near Blythe von George James Knox im Oktober 2003 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 235,00 (€ 343,24) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist On the beach near Blythe das teuerste Kunstwerk von George James Knox, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
