Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by George John Pinwell could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours auction, the work Topsey changed hands for GBP 562.50 (€ 693.72) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 600.00 – 1,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George John Pinwell achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Fine Lady in May 2014 with an auction result of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 18,435.48).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von George John Pinwell konnte im Dezember 2012 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours wechselte die Arbeit Topsey für GBP 562,50 (€ 693,72) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 1.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George John Pinwell erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Fine Lady im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 15.000,00 (€ 18.435,48).
