Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by John Copley could be acquired at Christies in London in October 2001 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Twentieth Century Prints auction, the work A Lady and a Dancer (W. 251) changed hands for GBP 376.00 (€ 607.67) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Admittedly, works by John Copley have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Autumn Leaves in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 3,600.00 (€ 5,346.11).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Copley konnte im Oktober 2001 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Twentieth Century Prints wechselte die Arbeit A Lady and a Dancer (W. 251) für GBP 376,00 (€ 607,67) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Copley auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Autumn Leaves im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.600,00 (€ 5.346,11).
