Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Evening Light On The Grand Canal by Ian Houston was sold in the 20th Century British Art including The Studio of Humphrey Jennings auction at Christies in London in July 2006. The price achieved of GBP 660.00 (€ 966.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 600.00 – 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ian Houston - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work On the North Norfolk Coast, which sold at auction in February 2002 for GBP 1,880.00 (€ 3,067.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Evening Light On The Grand Canal von Ian Houston wurde im Juli 2006 in der Auktion 20th Century British Art including The Studio of Humphrey Jennings bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 660,00 (€ 966,16) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Ian Houston mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit On the North Norfolk Coast beobachtet, die im Februar 2002 für GBP 1.880,00 (€ 3.067,97) versteigert wurde.
