Sold at the lower estimate price
In September 2012 Christies in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Heavy Weather - Grain Ship by Jack Lorimer Gray. The result of USD 40,000.00 (€ 31,113.88) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Admittedly, works by Jack Lorimer Gray have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Running Before The Trades in June 2013 with an auction result of GBP 145,875.00 (€ 170,262.25).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im September 2012 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Heavy Weather - Grain Ship von Jack Lorimer Gray zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 40.000,00 (€ 31.113,88) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Jack Lorimer Gray auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Running Before The Trades im Juni 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 145.875,00 (€ 170.262,25).
