Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In November 2020 Sothebys in London held the auction Scottish Art, which included the work The Market At Gerona by James McBey. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 6,300.00 (€ 7,032.93). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James McBey - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of Dacie, which sold at auction in September 2020 for GBP 25,000.00 (€ 27,566.56).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im November 2020 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Scottish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Market At Gerona von James McBey zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 6.300,00 (€ 7.032,93) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von James McBey mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of Dacie beobachtet, die im September 2020 für GBP 25.000,00 (€ 27.566,56) versteigert wurde.
