Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Landguard Fort, Harwich by John Cleveley the Younger was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,759.06). 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).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Landguard Fort, Harwich von John Cleveley the Younger im Juli 2021 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.759,06) den Besitzer. 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).
