Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Cocklefishers at Gravelines by John Brett was sold in the European & British Art auction at Sothebys in London in July 2021. The price achieved of GBP 5,040.00 (€ 5,910.45) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Brett achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pearly Summer in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 144,150.00 (€ 210,454.45).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Cocklefishers at Gravelines von John Brett wurde im Juli 2021 in der Auktion European & British Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.040,00 (€ 5.910,45) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Brett erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pearly Summer im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 144.150,00 (€ 210.454,45).
