A top price for John Charles Maggs - as previously expected
In June 2002 Christies in London held the auction Sporting Art and Dogs, which included the work A Bristol to London mail coach with a hunt beyond by John Charles Maggs. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,290.00 (€ 5,088.88) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A Bristol to London mail coach with a hunt beyond is the most expensive artwork by John Charles Maggs that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juni 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion Sporting Art and Dogs durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Bristol to London mail coach with a hunt beyond von John Charles Maggs zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 3.290,00 (€ 5.088,88) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist A Bristol to London mail coach with a hunt beyond das teuerste Kunstwerk von John Charles Maggs, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
