Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2003 Christies in Melbourne held the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS, which included the work Ben Cruachan, Scotland by Haughton Forrest. The price achieved of AUD 4,700.00 (€ 2,835.28) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Haughton Forrest achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Top Sail Schooner And Sailing Yacht in March 2005 with an auction result of AUD 65,725.00 (€ 40,238.76).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2003 führte Christies in Melbourne die Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Ben Cruachan, Scotland von Haughton Forrest zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 4.700,00 (€ 2.835,28) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Haughton Forrest erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Top Sail Schooner And Sailing Yacht im März 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 65.725,00 (€ 40.238,76).
