Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2005 Christies in London held the auction Sporting Art and Dogs, which included the work The Prince of Wales'S Steeplechase, 2Nd Time Round, Sandown Park; And At The Water For The Prince of Wales'S Steeplechase, Sandown Park by John Beer. 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 720.00 (€ 1,057.77) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by John Beer have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Miss Dollar Wins, Royal Handicap, Sandown Park; Freemason Wins, Sandown Park; Leaving the Paddock, Sandown Park; Parade, Sandown Park in May 2000 with an auction result of GBP 6,462.50 (€ 10,369.93).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2005 führte Christies in London die Auktion Sporting Art and Dogs durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Prince of Wales'S Steeplechase, 2Nd Time Round, Sandown Park; And At The Water For The Prince of Wales'S Steeplechase, Sandown Park von John Beer 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 720,00 (€ 1.057,77) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Beer auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Miss Dollar Wins, Royal Handicap, Sandown Park; Freemason Wins, Sandown Park; Leaving the Paddock, Sandown Park; Parade, Sandown Park im Mai 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.462,50 (€ 10.369,93).
