Despite a disappointment, a good price for James Price
This work of art by James Price could be acquired at Christies in London in September 2001 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Continental Watercolours and Drawings auction, the work Figures before a cottage in a wooded landscape; and A herder with sheep in a wooded landscape changed hands for GBP 587.50 (€ 948.56) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00. Despite this disappointing result, Figures before a cottage in a wooded landscape; and A herder with sheep in a wooded landscape is the most expensive artwork by James Price that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für James Price
Dieses Kunstwerk von James Price konnte im September 2001 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours and Drawings wechselte die Arbeit Figures before a cottage in a wooded landscape; and A herder with sheep in a wooded landscape für GBP 587,50 (€ 948,56) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Figures before a cottage in a wooded landscape; and A herder with sheep in a wooded landscape das teuerste Kunstwerk von James Price, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
