Auction result misses estimated price range
In March last year a collector was able to acquire the work A waterfall and and overshot mill, Combe Valley, Devon by James Ward for GBP 378.00 (€ 448.16). This price was achieved in the auction Dramas of Light and Land: The Martyn Gregory Collection of British Art at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Ward achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Terrier, Stoat And Dead Rabbit In A Rocky Landscape in November 2005 with an auction result of GBP 512,000.00 (€ 752,192.71).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im März letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit A waterfall and and overshot mill, Combe Valley, Devon von James Ward für GBP 378,00 (€ 448,16) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Dramas of Light and Land: The Martyn Gregory Collection of British Art bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Ward erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Terrier, Stoat And Dead Rabbit In A Rocky Landscape im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 512.000,00 (€ 752.192,71).
