Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Returning from the olive groves by Henry Markò was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2001, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 470.00 (€ 787.97). Other works by Henry Markò have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in November 2004 by the work Ruderi Nei Dintorni Di Roma; E Al Mausoleo Di Cecilia Metella. at EUR 1,240.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Returning from the olive groves von Henry Markò im Mai 2001 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 470,00 (€ 787,97) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Henry Markò wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im November 2004 die Arbeit Ruderi Nei Dintorni Di Roma; E Al Mausoleo Di Cecilia Metella. mit EUR 1.240,00.
