Auction result well in line with expectations

In November 2001 Christies in London held the auction BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES, which included the work Shipping off the Lofoten Islands by Johannes Martin Grimelund. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 763.75 (€ 1,215.37) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Johannes Martin Grimelund have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Le Port De Marseille, 1881 in December 2010 with an auction result of EUR 6,375.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im November 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES durch, in der auch die Arbeit Shipping off the Lofoten Islands von Johannes Martin Grimelund zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 763,75 (€ 1.215,37) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Johannes Martin Grimelund auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Le Port De Marseille, 1881 im Dezember 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 6.375,00.
