Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A tumble in the cow-pat by Isaac Robert Cruickshank was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2005, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 250.00 – 300.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 204.00 (€ 296.09). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Isaac Robert Cruickshank achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Laplanders, Reindeer &c. as Exhibited at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly. 1822.; and The Laplanders Return, to their Native Country under the Care of Mr Bullock & His Son. in September 2007 with an auction result of GBP 3,500.00 (€ 5,018.74).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A tumble in the cow-pat von Isaac Robert Cruickshank im Dezember 2005 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 250,00 – 300,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 204,00 (€ 296,09) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Isaac Robert Cruickshank erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Laplanders, Reindeer &c. as Exhibited at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly. 1822.; and The Laplanders Return, to their Native Country under the Care of Mr Bullock & His Son. im September 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.500,00 (€ 5.018,74).
