Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by John Anster Fitzgerald achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in New York in September this year. In the 19th Century and British Impressionist Art auction, the work Ariel sold for GBP 10,240.00 (€ 10,240.00) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Anster Fitzgerald achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Dream After The Masked Ball (The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of) in November 2008 with an auction result of GBP 301,250.00 (€ 364,233.89).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Anster Fitzgerald erzielte im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 19th Century and British Impressionist Art wurde die Arbeit Ariel für GBP 10.240,00 (€ 10.240,00) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Anster Fitzgerald erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Dream After The Masked Ball (The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of) im November 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 301.250,00 (€ 364.233,89).
