Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Deer grazing in wooded parkland by George James Rowe was auctioned at Christies in London in January 2008, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 137.50 (€ 184.32). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George James Rowe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pont Street, London in November 2005 with an auction result of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 8,814.76).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Deer grazing in wooded parkland von George James Rowe im Januar 2008 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 137,50 (€ 184,32) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George James Rowe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pont Street, London im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 8.814,76).
