Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by James Elder Christie could be acquired at Christies in London in March 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Victorian including Scottish Paintings auction, the work A boy leaning on a tree changed hands for GBP 597.50 (€ 894.40) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Elder Christie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work First love in March 2002 with an auction result of GBP 6,462.50 (€ 10,564.49).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von James Elder Christie konnte im März 2004 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Victorian including Scottish Paintings wechselte die Arbeit A boy leaning on a tree für GBP 597,50 (€ 894,40) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Elder Christie erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit First love im März 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.462,50 (€ 10.564,49).
