Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by George Sheringham could be acquired at Christies in London in October 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale auction, the work Up River changed hands for GBP 937.50 (€ 1,165.62) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Admittedly, works by George Sheringham have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Kenwood in October 2012 with an auction result of GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,439.55).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von George Sheringham konnte im Oktober 2012 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale wechselte die Arbeit Up River für GBP 937,50 (€ 1.165,62) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von George Sheringham auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Kenwood im Oktober 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.375,00 (€ 5.439,55).
