Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May 2013 Christies in London held the auction The Brian Juhos Collection From a Domaine in Southern France, which included the work Designs Of An Antique Helmut Of Bronze Found At Ribchester by James Basire. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 500.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 562.50 (€ 657.65). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James Basire - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Encampment of the English Forces near Portsmouth, together with a view of the English and French Fleets at the commencement of the action between them on the XIXth. of July MDXLV., which sold at auction in October 2006 for GBP 1,200.00 (€ 1,792.91).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion The Brian Juhos Collection From a Domaine in Southern France durch, in der auch die Arbeit Designs Of An Antique Helmut Of Bronze Found At Ribchester von James Basire zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 500,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 562,50 (€ 657,65) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von James Basire mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Encampment of the English Forces near Portsmouth, together with a view of the English and French Fleets at the commencement of the action between them on the XIXth. of July MDXLV. beobachtet, die im Oktober 2006 für GBP 1.200,00 (€ 1.792,91) versteigert wurde.
