Despite a disappointment, a good price for James Butler Brenan
When the work Portrait of a pastor, bust-length, in a black coat and collar by James Butler Brenan was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2007, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 216.00 (€ 316.25). Despite this disappointing result, Portrait of a pastor, bust-length, in a black coat and collar is the most expensive artwork by James Butler Brenan that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für James Butler Brenan
Als die Arbeit Portrait of a pastor, bust-length, in a black coat and collar von James Butler Brenan im April 2007 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 216,00 (€ 316,25) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Portrait of a pastor, bust-length, in a black coat and collar das teuerste Kunstwerk von James Butler Brenan, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
