Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A young lady, in fur-bordered black dress and headress, pearl choker by Gervase Spencer was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2007. It changed hands for a price of GBP 288.00 (€ 423.90) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 200.00 – 300.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gervase Spencer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of A Young Boy, Circa 1750 in May 2020 with an auction result of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,632.01).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit A young lady, in fur-bordered black dress and headress, pearl choker von Gervase Spencer kam im März 2007 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 288,00 (€ 423,90) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 200,00 – 300,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gervase Spencer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of A Young Boy, Circa 1750 im Mai 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.632,01).
