Sold at the lower estimate price
In June 2013 Christies in London held the auction Maritime Art, which included the work The American Clipper Flying Cloud Cracking Along In An Ocean Breeze by John Bentham-Dinsdale. The result of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,334.36) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Bentham-Dinsdale have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work H.M.S. Crescent, under the command of Captain James Saumarez, capturing the French frigate Réunion off Cherbourg, 20 October 1793 in March 2017 with an auction result of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,521.70).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Juni 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion Maritime Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The American Clipper Flying Cloud Cracking Along In An Ocean Breeze von John Bentham-Dinsdale zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.334,36) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Bentham-Dinsdale auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit H.M.S. Crescent, under the command of Captain James Saumarez, capturing the French frigate Réunion off Cherbourg, 20 October 1793 im März 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.521,70).
