Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Dutch flagship receiving a salute as she arrives at the fleet anchorage by John Christian Schetky was sold in the Maritime Art auction at Christies in London in October 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 22,500.00 (€ 28,679.43) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by John Christian Schetky have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Lord Belfast's yacht Emily hove-to for her owner to come aboard, off the Belem Tower, at the mouth of the Tagus, Lisbon in October 2007 with an auction result of GBP 96,500.00 (€ 138,580.35).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A Dutch flagship receiving a salute as she arrives at the fleet anchorage von John Christian Schetky wurde im Oktober 2008 in der Auktion Maritime Art bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 22.500,00 (€ 28.679,43) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Christian Schetky auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Lord Belfast's yacht Emily hove-to for her owner to come aboard, off the Belem Tower, at the mouth of the Tagus, Lisbon im Oktober 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 96.500,00 (€ 138.580,35).
