Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Freighter City of Sydney Departing Sydney Harbour by John Allcot was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2006. It achieved a price of GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,101.93), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Allcot - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Buckingham, which sold at auction in April 2003 for AUD 11,750.00 (€ 5,991.73).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 1.440,00 (€ 2.101,93) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 20%. Für andere Arbeiten von John Allcot mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Buckingham beobachtet, die im April 2003 für AUD 11.750,00 (€ 5.991,73) versteigert wurde.
