In March last year Christies in London held the auction Dramas of Light and Land: The Martyn Gregory Collection of British Art, which included the work Whaling in the Arctic by John Cleveley the Younger. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 20,160.00 (€ 23,901.95), 68% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Cleveley the Younger achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Views In The South Seas (4) in September 2004 with an auction result of GBP 318,850.00 (€ 464,524.16).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Christies in London die Auktion Dramas of Light and Land: The Martyn Gregory Collection of British Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Whaling in the Arctic von John Cleveley the Younger zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 20.160,00 (€ 23.901,95) und damit 68% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Cleveley the Younger erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Views In The South Seas (4) im September 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 318.850,00 (€ 464.524,16).
