A top price for James Arthur O'Connor - as previously expected
In May 2004 Christies in London held the auction THE IRISH SALE, which included the work The Ford - A mountainous river landscape with a figure with a wagon and horses at a ford by James Arthur O'Connor. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 33,460.00 (€ 50,202.32) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Ford - A mountainous river landscape with a figure with a wagon and horses at a ford is the most expensive artwork by James Arthur O'Connor that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Mai 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion THE IRISH SALE durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Ford - A mountainous river landscape with a figure with a wagon and horses at a ford von James Arthur O'Connor zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 33.460,00 (€ 50.202,32) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Ford - A mountainous river landscape with a figure with a wagon and horses at a ford das teuerste Kunstwerk von James Arthur O'Connor, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
