Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Volunteer vs Mayflower: A Pair of Works by James Edward Buttersworth was sold in the 19th Century American Art auction at Christies in New York in January this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 30,240.00 (€ 27,850.43) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Edward Buttersworth achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Yacht "Magic" Defending America'S Cup, 1870 in November 2014 with an auction result of USD 821,000.00 (€ 660,073.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Volunteer vs Mayflower: A Pair of Works von James Edward Buttersworth wurde im Januar diesen Jahres in der Auktion 19th Century American Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 30.240,00 (€ 27.850,43) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Edward Buttersworth erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Yacht "Magic" Defending America'S Cup, 1870 im November 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 821.000,00 (€ 660.073,97).
