Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
In December 2007 Christies in London held the auction British, Continental & Russian Pictures, which included the work House, Tree And Pond; Necklace Of Stars; And The Holy City by John Christopherson. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 750.00 (€ 1,019.12), 50% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Christopherson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Moonlit Grove 2 55 x 43cm (21 5/8 x 16 15/16in) unframed, which sold at auction in April this year for GBP 3,187.50 (€ 3,632.71).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British, Continental & Russian Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit House, Tree And Pond; Necklace Of Stars; And The Holy City von John Christopherson zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 750,00 (€ 1.019,12) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von John Christopherson mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Moonlit Grove 2 55 x 43cm (21 5/8 x 16 15/16in) unframed beobachtet, die im April diesen Jahres für GBP 3.187,50 (€ 3.632,71) versteigert wurde.
