Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by James Cresser Tarr could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British, Continental and Russian Pictures auction, the work A busy afternoon on City Road, Cardiff changed hands for GBP 480.00 (€ 712.38) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 500.00 – 700.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James Cresser Tarr - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Cornfield, which sold at auction in March 2005 for GBP 1,920.00 (€ 2,796.28).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von James Cresser Tarr konnte im Dezember 2006 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British, Continental and Russian Pictures wechselte die Arbeit A busy afternoon on City Road, Cardiff für GBP 480,00 (€ 712,38) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 500,00 – 700,00. Für andere Arbeiten von James Cresser Tarr mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Cornfield beobachtet, die im März 2005 für GBP 1.920,00 (€ 2.796,28) versteigert wurde.
