Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'Welsh Coast' by John Brett was auctioned at Bonhams in London in October last year. The price achieved of GBP 2,550.00 (€ 2,970.72) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. 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 'Welsh Coast' von John Brett kam im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.550,00 (€ 2.970,72) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 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).
