Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Magpie Island, Henley On Thames by James Stark was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2005. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 840.00 (€ 1,234.07) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Stark achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Wooded Landscape With Figures On A Track, A Cottage Beyond in June 2006 with an auction result of GBP 24,000.00 (€ 34,727.60).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Magpie Island, Henley On Thames von James Stark kam im November 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 840,00 (€ 1.234,07) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Stark erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Wooded Landscape With Figures On A Track, A Cottage Beyond im Juni 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 24.000,00 (€ 34.727,60).
