Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by George James Rowe could be acquired at Christies in London in January 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Totnes changed hands for GBP 200.00 (€ 268.11) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00. 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
Dieses Kunstwerk von George James Rowe konnte im Januar 2008 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wechselte die Arbeit Totnes für GBP 200,00 (€ 268,11) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. 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).
