Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by George Knight could be acquired at Christies in London in May 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Maritime Pictures auction, the work Pulling in the nets changed hands for GBP 239.00 (€ 358.59) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Knight achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Heading Out To The Fishing Grounds (Illustrated); And Returning With The Day'S Catch in November 2004 with an auction result of GBP 2,629.00 (€ 3,781.80).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von George Knight konnte im Mai 2004 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Maritime Pictures wechselte die Arbeit Pulling in the nets für GBP 239,00 (€ 358,59) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Knight erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Heading Out To The Fishing Grounds (Illustrated); And Returning With The Day'S Catch im November 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.629,00 (€ 3.781,80).
