Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by James Ferrier Pryde achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in March 2009. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Study for 'The Ambassador' sold for GBP 1,750.00 (€ 1,887.11) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Ferrier Pryde achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Red Ruin in September 2011 with an auction result of GBP 91,250.00 (€ 106,007.14).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von James Ferrier Pryde erzielte im März 2009 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Study for 'The Ambassador' für GBP 1.750,00 (€ 1.887,11) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Ferrier Pryde erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Red Ruin im September 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 91.250,00 (€ 106.007,14).
