Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Hugh Collins could be acquired at Christies in New York in November 2005 for an unexpectedly low price. In the THE HOUSE SALE auction, the work The Violin Player changed hands for USD 1,200.00 (€ 1,017.81) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hugh Collins - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of a mother and child, seated three-quarter-length, the mother in a black dress with lace trimming, her daughter by her side, which sold at auction in July 2005 for GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,088.71).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Hugh Collins konnte im November 2005 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion THE HOUSE SALE wechselte die Arbeit The Violin Player für USD 1.200,00 (€ 1.017,81) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Hugh Collins mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of a mother and child, seated three-quarter-length, the mother in a black dress with lace trimming, her daughter by her side beobachtet, die im Juli 2005 für GBP 1.440,00 (€ 2.088,71) versteigert wurde.
